I have observed similar issues to Adam's as well on GM45 with all the latest 
Xorg/Mesa3d userland code. Under KDE4, when playing with desktop effects 
settings some textures get lost after a while. Often soon afterwards the X 
server crashes and on restart the screen stays black with just the mouse 
cursor showing. The machine is otherwise responsive and I can switch to a 
console. The error log shows messages about the GPU being wedged.

I haven't had time yet for a bisect. As a starting point I would choose the 
last commit on anholt's intel-next branch. This has been rock solid for me.

Regards,

Magnus
