JFTR, and although it seems to be a totally different problem with i915
(or rather gm45), the whole 2.6.38.* series is also of limited use on my
notebook, as described in this error message:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31522
I'm still using 2.6.38-rc8 (with SuSE 11.4/tumbleweed) on this machine
(Acer TravelMate 5735Z-452G32Mnss), because that's the last version that
supported KMS on my chipset. This older version works ok, so there's no
reason to complain, but I'm still a bit suprised about that regression.
