This one is triaged already :-)

I can confirm

[drm:i915_gem_idle] *ERROR* hardware wedged

appears when I kill -9 the X process remotely to get out of the freeze. It does NOT appear until prompted by the kill.

It does NOT appear during subsequent X restart attempt by kdm (which fails repeatably), it's definitely at the time I kill the old server, not a few seconds later when the new one is spawned. Once it's broke, it's broke. :-)

I think we may have to send this upstream, found a couple of bugs in other distros that look very similar.
