[Bug 327844] Re: [GMA X4500] Xorg freeze when switching to compiz

[Bryce Harrington]

Due to differences in hardware, symptoms, steps to reproduce, and so on,
I'm not convinced everyone is seeing exactly the same bug.  Symptoms for
different freeze bugs are often indistinguishable.

So, I'm going to undupe zwaldowski's bug; it should be handled as a
separate bug.

I also want to isolate the "freeze after activating compiz" from freezes
after other activities.  Given that they're appearing on the same
hardware, yes it could be the same underlying bug, but the differences
in reproducing the error just muddies the water.  And it would not be at
all unusual to have two or more freeze bugs on the same  hardware.  So I
think it will be easier to handle each of the freeze scenarios as a
different bug.  If nothing else, it gives us test cases to check when we
do think we have a solution.

I will update this bug to focus only on one freeze scenario, on one
specific intel chip.  Other scenarios and other hardware need new bugs
filed on them.
