> This is a Lenovo X220t, (early) SNB graphics.
> I use Metacity without compositing, in a dual-monitor setup (internal LVDS +

> Launching glxgears on VGA1 causes lots of "Kicking stuck wait on render

> something like 0.1 fps.
> Glxgears on LVDS is completely fine (60fps). Launching it on LVDS and then

> The lockups start the moment the center of the glxgears window crosses

> Adding 'Option "SwapbuffersWait" "false"' workarounds the problem. 
> As does enabling compositing, or switching to UXA.

Please make sure that you're on the latest version of the intel DDX. Early
versions of the snb vsync support had bugs with dual-head configurations. If
you still experience hangs then please file a new bug report - for us it's much
easier to mark duplicates than to untangle multiple bugs in the same report.
And there are countless reasons to hang a gpu ;-)
