I can confirm that there is no corruption with 2.6.30-rc2 with jbarnes' last- minute fix manually applied, intel driver 2.7.0 and KMS on GM965. No corruption even after a resume from suspend to disk. Great! However, I am not able to redirect output on VGA connected monitors (it works without KMS). I've opened bug #21250 on fd.o with more details. Also, you might be interested to know that with the current git master of xorg, mesa and intel driver there is an additional issue: KDE4 compositing manager cannot be enabled when using KMS. thanks > > So there are some tricky dependencies here that can be hard to get > right.
