Intel GPU dump, dmesg and Xorg.0.log

After starting X on my Apple MacBook, both mouse and keyboard lock up after a few seconds.  Before locking up, the 'login' input box and other characters from kdm sometimes appear corrupted. After locking up, 'Alt+Ctrl+F1' I cannot kill the session using 'Alt+Ctrl+F1'. However, I can still connect to the computer via SSH.

Please find attached the Intel GPU dump, dmesg and Xorg log.

This is perhaps a duplicate of bug 23686.

I have the same exact problem, disabling dri improved but did not solve the issue. Downgrading to debian's xorg-video-intel-2:2.7.1-1 solved the problem.

Could you try new kernel with KMS enabled? We've been reported new kernel has fixed the issue on Macbook.
