Hi all,

Two things:
- Please _always_ include a public mailing list when reporting bugs, your dear maintainer sometimes slacks off.
- We need to see the error_state before we can assess what kind of hang you have (it's like gettting a SIGSEGV for a normal program, no two gpu hangs are the same ...).

Cheers, Daniel

Hi Chris/Daniel,

This is Dihan from Rethink Robotics and we were hoping you could help with the GPU hang problem in the i915 driver mentioned in bug #26345:

We are running into the same problem with the 3.8.5 kernel (which has the fix mentioned in comment #153 of the bug report) when running a Qt 5 application in Gentoo. At times the entire X session would freeze. The x11-perf tests described in the bug report run without any issues though.

Would you happen to know whether this is because of an issue in the driver that is not currently being addressed by the fix? I have attached the Xorg log, the dmesg output and i915_error_state from a hung session. Please let me know if you need any more info. Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Dihan
