I used to have crashes in less than 2 minutes under Ubuntu karmic and lucid when I simply ran firefox or even a gnome-term.
I applied fix-i8xx-gtt-cache-coherency-v9-2.6.35.1.patch to Ubuntu maverick kernel 2.6.35-18.24 from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-maverick.git (the patch needed adaptation, but 'patch' did the magic alone).

I have no freeze anymore. Thanks for the patch!
Please put it in the main trunk for maverick, from other test reports it might not be perfect, but it is certainly better than the current status.
I run 2xserver-xorg-video-intel :2.9.1-3ubuntu5 from lucid. And KMS is activated through the boot command i915.modeset=1
