No nothing. But please note that I am on debian-sid but do have the very
same symptons described here all over the place (freeze of screen, mouse
cursor still working). As I stated before debian does not have all the
ubuntu patches but unfortunately everything upgraded, xorg, mesa, intel
drivers (drm and display driver) at the same time. However, I still get
the crash when downgrading the intel driver to 2.6.3 (which was known to
work reliably). Unfortunately I had to stop there, the bug seems to
complex for proper bisecting (under my time constraints).
