have you had any freeze of X?

Yes, I'm having the issues as well. I sent an email to the person adding poulsbo packages into the ubuntu-mobile ppa and asked him if he knew of the problems.

why don't you people post a syslog?
clear it, and wait when the issue happens.
than post it here, could provide some clues...
...

Sure. What is it, and where is it? Is it a log file? Is it a simple text file? Is it always generated or does something have to be enabled or run? Where is it?

BTW 'you people' is just such a lovely form of address.

For me seems that change xorg.conf helps, at least a have not any freezes for more then 5 hours of using my netbook, it's the best result I ever have. Thank's for posting, I will continue with testing.

hello satbunny,
almost every log file linux produces, is located in /var/log and subfolders
you have different log files, each for a different "thing" eg: system, X, boot, security...
depending from your distribution and configuration, some files could change name.
every log is a txt file and in case you delete it, the system provides to create it again.
the file i'm interested in is syslog.
you can clear the file using
> /var/log/syslog

also, you can see what the system is writing on the log file in realtime using

tail -f logname

hope this helps

bye,

fabio


ps: is "you people" offensive? clarify me the situation, in order to avoid misunderstandings...tnx

i tried the uxa acceleration fix in xorg and it did not work. and it may be too early to confirm, but i removed the line out of xorg so it looks the way it originally did, and i havnt had a freeze yet. wtf?

It seems to be a completely random thing... sometimes it freezes five minutes in, other times it never gets me and I shut it down properly.
