[Intel-gfx] i915 drm GPU hung errors with kernel 2.6.38.2 on 82865G chipset

[Bruno Prémont]

Hi Wojtek,

Your best chance to see the bugs fixed is to report a bug following
guidelines at http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html

For GPU hangs, collecting the error state (while GPU is hung) under
debugfs is very helpful.
Report contents of (as well as details on your software stack and
if know what kind of action triggered the hung):
  /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_error_state

Also you should CC intel-gfx at lists.freedesktop.org and Chris Wilson
<chris at chris-wilson.co.uk> for all issues regarding intel GPUs as
thats the place it has better chance of being seen by someone who
can help out. (intel-gfx is subscribers-only but at least part of the
thread would reach it)

Regards,
Bruno
