On Wednesday I update, and subsequently started getting hangs and lockups. This happens only when DRI is enabled. When DRI is disabled there is no problem. The seriousness can vary. Sometimes I can ssh in from another machine to reboot, other times I can't. The last time it hung, top showed X.org at 100.0% CPU. The previous time it was stuck with in a "drmwtq" state. The hang always occurs within twenty minutes of starting X.

Option "AGPMode" "4" Option "RenderAccel" "on" Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" EndSection I have had no prior problems with -STABLE. I have an Intel Q45 chipset, so I need to run -STABLE, and don't have the option of going back to -RELEASE. Is there any easy way to go back to an earlier -STABLE? -- David Johnson
