   Hi,

   I get randomly X crash with slitaz 3.0 stable and Intel i915 graphic driver on my 901 eeepc.
   Is there anything to do ?
   Thanks,

   Check Xorg.0.log for errors and warnings:
   tux@slitaz:~$ grep -e \(ww\) -e \(EE\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log
   If you see many errors post the log at pastebin.com

   There is no i915 driver in the slitaz repo.
   Do you mean the xf86-video-intel driver in repo which supports i915 ?

   Yes, xf86-video-intel driver is installed.
   $ lsmod | grep i915
   i915 143208 0
   drm 121736 1 i915
   i2c_algo_bit 4724 1 i915
   video 17828 1 i915
   i2c_core 17468 3 i915,drm,i2c_algo_bit

   Here is my Xorg.0.log

   intel_agp , agpgart , intel_gtt should be loaded with i915 ?
   #tazpkg get-install linux-agp
   The evdev log errors:
   #tazpkg get-install xorg-xf86-input-evdev

   If this doesn't fix the problem post the entire /var/log/Xorg.0.log and lsmod to pastebin

   Yes, i just installed the evdev package (with fr keyboard in /usr/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-keymap.fdi) and no evdev error anymore.
   I added appgart and intel_agp in /etc/rcS.conf. intel_gtt does not load.
   From time to time, i can see the screen slightly shivering for half of a second...
   Now, i'm waiting for X crash... :-)

   Hi,

   After few hours, i got another X crash yesterday night while browsing the internet.
   Screen got black with no mouse.
   I could get tty1 -> tty6 with CTRL + Fn
   With 'ps -e', i could see that Xorg, openbox, lxpanel, Firefox, etc... were still working.
   After killing all of them, i couldn't run any X session.

   Hi,

   I removed slitaz-3.0 and installed slitaz cooking.
   Now X is stable and no X crash anymore.
   Everything works except webcam (need uvcvideo).
