Package: xorg
Version: 1:7.5+6
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

When screensaver is on and I try to continue to work the screensaver fails down
include whole X server.
It also happens when I try so run graphical setting utility in Gnome, menu
system - options - screensaver.
There is an blue screen with this information:

begin
FATAL: Module fbcon not found.

Fatal server error:
Failed to submit batchbuffer: Input/output error


X: ../../src/i830_batchbuffer.h:79: intel_batch_emit_dword:
Assertion `pI830->batch_ptr != ((void *)0)' failed.
end

My hardware is Dell Optiplex GX60 in factory configuration (no changes).
Software is Debian Squeeze.

This error appears approximately for two months on this computer only.

Thank you

Viktor Matys

Please run 'reportbug -N 589207' to provide the necessary information.
Also it would be good to try xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.12 from
experimental, and let us know whether the bug still happens with that.

Cheers,
Julien

Hi Julien,

thank you for your answer. I did as you said: I installed version 2.12
and the change was that th X server didnot fall, but it restarted into
login gdm "only" instead - so different but still problem. I downgraded
back to version 2.9. Problem with failing X server returned.
Then I deleted directories .gconf, .gconfd, .gnome2 and .gnome2_private
from my home directory. After reboot screensaver works fine, locking and
unlocking (ctrl+alt+l) works and the X server runs.

So my problem is solved out. Little unuderstandable way - for me :)

Thank you

Viktor

P.S. If you need send those directories for analyse I have archived
them. So tell me please.
