Hello!
i have the following problem:
i have a medion sim 2010 latop with integrated Intel Corporation Mobile
915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller
if u use the vesa driver, all is fine, although slow, and some programs
don't start due to missing xvideo support (even if xdpyinfo reports
xvideo as loaded...)
as soon as i use the i810 driver, graphics speed up, but as soon as i
start something that uses more evolved stuff (tvtime, mplayer etc) the
screen first freezes, then shows only the background , goes black, shows
the original X waiting symbol and doesn't bulge anymore, no way to acces
the consoles or stop the xserver, i have to login through the network
and restart (!) the laptop.
Just restarting gdm doesn't do the job...
i am running debian unstable from today...
There are currently problems with DRI for the i810 driver:

You can see if direct rendering is working with
glxinfo | grep direct
When you have logged into the locked-up computer you can check
/var/log/Xorg.0.log for further clues about what goes wrong.
As far as restarting gdm goes, try to "pkill -9 X" first, that should at
least save you the trouble of rebooting.
