--- Comment #22 from Mark Janes <mark.a.janes at intel.com> ---
There are a few ways to accelerate 2D graphics.  For Intel hardware, you can
use:

 - SNA: xf86-video-intel, which accelerates the 2D api for Intel GPUs
 - Glamor/modesetting: implements the 2D api in OpenGL

Different distributions choose different defaults.  A GPU hang caused by Xorg
can be caused by SNA or Mesa's implementation of the GL commands sent by
Glamor.

Some Mesa GPU hangs have been recently fixed by:

Some SNA GPU hangs have been recently fixed by:

sna/gen9: Emit a dummy primitive between VertexElements

Make sure you use versions that have those patches.
