Comment 9 for bug 330460

I tried to boot the standard jaunty live CD on a laptop with 965 chipset, and then I did "/etc/init.d/gdm stop" on it, changed xorg.conf to UXA and did startx.

xorg came up using the live cd bits + UXA and then I opened this JPG and boom xorg frozen on the 965+UXA as well. I had previous done "sudo apt-get install ssh" and "sudo su" followed by "passwd ubuntu" and I had two root shells logged in to the live CD system. The nasty part was that on 965 when the bug triggers all my ssh shells becomes unresponsive as well. All I can tell you is that the fan on the laptop starts to work at 100% speed which is odd because that usually only happens if xorg does into a spin loop and on the G45 what I saw in gdb was not a CPU spin but rather a hang where xorg was stuck in some ioctl.

For reasons above I have no idea what the dmesg or xorg_log says on the 965 (I also cant install jaunty on this box because I need to have a stable machine for email etc).

Anyway, it's safe to say that 965+UXA seems affected too.
