If I open the given Web site (http://www.8bs.com) in Konqueror in Kubuntu (kdebase 3.4.0-0ubuntu18, linux-386 2.6.10-7), it brings down my X server (xorg-common 6.8.2-10) and seems to upset the hardware enough to prevent the X server from being restarted and to prevent access to consoles. If I try the same thing in Firefox (mozilla-firefox 1.0.6-0ubuntu0.1) no such behaviour occurs. The error text from Xorg.0.log.old is given below: (II) I810(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel (II) I810(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xf8cd2000 at 0xb7d68000 Error in I830WaitLpRing(), now is 9466, start is 7465 pgetbl_ctl: 0x3ffe0001 pgetbl_err: 0x29 ipeir: 0 iphdr: 1810000 LP ring tail: 60 head: 0 len: 1f001 start 0 eir: 0 esr: 10 emr: ffff instdone: ffc0 instpm: 0 memmode: 108 instps: 0 hwstam: ffff ier: 0 imr: ffff iir: 280 space: 130968 wanted 131064 Fatal server error: lockup Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at http://wiki.X.Org for help.

Added to the Kubuntu bugzilla (http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com) as bug #13401.
You'll need to attach the full log from /var/log/Xorg.0.log so we can see exactly what's going on.
Created attachment 3340 [details] [review] proposed patch According to the Kubuntu people, this may be a problem with the "Kaffeine xine part" - I am investigating this now.
The problem was traced to Kaffeine (kaffeine_part) which was playing an audio/x-wav file before presumably crashing (as usual). Still, bringing down the X server is a somewhat undesirable outcome.
Then you are probably better off getting my test driver at http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/intel.html and see if that helps with the kaffeine problems.
Paul, Can you try my test driver and report if the problem persists ?
Just attempted to test this today, but 8bs.com is down and a test page embedding an audio/x-wav resource failed to cause kaffeine_part to behave as it once did. I'll try and investigate this later on.
Any news ?
Sorry, Alan! It appears that 8bs.com was down for a bit. Anyway, I reproduced the fault under the existing X server and then tried with your i810_drv.o. First, I tried just logging back in and hoping that X would use the new driver, but the fault occurred as before - I suppose logging out and then in doesn't reset the X server's state as much as I thought. Then, after rebooting I tried 8bs.com and the fault had apparently disappeared - I get some fairly garbled sound resembling what the webmaster presumably intended, but everything keeps running and the X server doesn't crash. The only odd thing was that I needed to auto-adjust my LCD monitor after the reboot - the image was shifted 40 or 50 pixels to the left.
Paul, Can you try my latest driver and upload another log that may fix the offset image ?
Closing as the initial report is fixed. If you've still got problems with the adjusted screen - open a new report. But it might be useful to upgrade to 7.0 and get my latest driver from http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/intel.html and try that before opening a report. Thanks!
