But it's not.

.. and apparently a lot of breakage too. My crappy laptop that I abuse for travel is - once more - broken by the updates. I cannot suspend and resume, because every resume seems to fail.
One of the more useful failures was:
[ 61.656055] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... GPU hung [ 61.656079] [drm] capturing error event; look for more information in /debug/dri/0/i915_error_state [ 61.664387] [drm:i915_wait_request] *ERROR* i915_wait_request returns -11 (awaiting 2 at 0, next 3)
and I'm attaching the error_state file from that particular case here. In other cases it seems to just hang entirely.
Keith/Jesse/Chris - I don't know that it's i915, and it will take forever to bisect (I'll try). But it does seem pretty likely.
Just in case - is it possible to have that commit in diff format ?
Asking as 2.6.38-git2 is the latest kernel where my Latitude E6400 is displaying X at 1440x900, -git3 through -git6 do not compile and -git7 and onwards (up at least to -git11) display 1024x768 instead.
If I run xrandr --fb 1440x900 --output LVDS1 --mode 1440x900 once in X, then I get 1440x900 display, but then:
- the wallpaper's original 1024x768 image stays (the rest of the display area is filled with the part of image that should be there correctly at 1440x900) - if I run mplayer and ask it to go fullscreen, it does 1024x768
lspci (from 2.6.38-git2) says:
