Folow up to comment #173
Yesterday evening I had a GPU hang after 24h of squeezing the i845. First symptom was that totem player was shutting down without comment after it had opened an video which I had already watched before. Then I logged out and instead of showing the login screen the computer became unresponsive. I still could shutdown via ACPI. Unfortunately had no ssh installed so I could not draw an i915_error_state. I try to attach the critical part of syslog.
I have one freze at a total uptime of 69h on two i845 based computers now with the 2.6.35rc4-131+ge467e10+nopatch-generic or 2.6.35rc5-nopatch1-generic kernels and updated drivers. This is certainly much better than what I got with the 2.6.34-v9patch-generic kernel and standard lucid drivers
