SubjectRe: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference, i915_gem_object_move_to_active

It appears the same is (was) happening to my wifes laptop. But I've
never been able to find a reason for it, nor a BUG or WARN. And the same
logoff and firefox crashes that you mention, although it has Gnome on it
instead of KDE.
That was going on with Ubuntu Karmic installed (using standard Ubuntu
2.6.31 kernel). Yesterday I decided (since she'd be gone for the whole
day) to upgrade to Lucid. I'll have to wait and see whether that still
happens. I have seen already that on some boots the wireless is not
stable (i.e. the connection gets dropped after a few seconds and
re-negotiated), but I guess that's not related.

As for the hw, it's an Acer Aspire 3650: Celeron, ATI SB400, ATI based
graphics (using the radeon driver) and Atheros based wireless (using
ath5k). So it seems that most of the hw differs except for the wireless.
