I have a Dell Vostro 1500 with Intel X3100 (965gm) graphics chip. There are two things I can do to reveal this bug. The simplest is to start Blender and render the default scene. The second is to turn on Normal Desktop Effects and watch a video on YouTube. I do not get this error in /var/log/X.org.0.log.old:

Error in I830WaitLpRing(), timeout for 2 seconds

Aside from the absence of the error message other symptoms appear identical: mouse pointer is visible and movable and I can't do anything but power the computer off.
