[Bug 484412] [NEW] Xorg freezes after short time (i855GM)

[Daniel Kamm]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Affected system: Maxdata Pro 600i
Graphic Chip: Intel 855GM

Behaviour: System gets locally inresponsitive after a short time when
Xorg started. Mouse cursor is still moveable, but system doesn't react
on mouse click, keyboard clicks or even Ctrl-Alt F2 for console.
However, system is fully available using openssh-server.

System had been upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10, but bug also exists when
using Karmic Live-CD.

'Freeze' can easily be reproduced by stressing the graphics subsystem
(i.e. moving a window fast over the desktop).

I've tried to disable KMS by booting the kernel with option nomodset.
Same behaviour.
