drm/i915: Disable RC6 on Ironlake The automatic powersaving feature is once again causing havoc, with 100% reliable hangs on boot and resume on affected machines.

That should work its way upstream shortly.
I've tried to apply it on top of 2.6.38-rc4, and now it doesn't hang when I start X, but it hangs when I resume from suspend to RAM.
Since intel_reg_read won't work, can you try this patch instead? Just patch it in, then cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_drpc_info
Thanks,
