Comment 52 for bug 446717

The crash seems to happen in drm_intel_gem_bo_start_gtt_access(),
judging from those stacktraces.

> I also believe that this problem is closely linked to OpenGL activity. Before I touch the brightness keys everything is fine. Compiz and glxgears run. When I touched the brightness keys (sometimes I need to touch them more than one time), compiz freezes. When I kill it via a SSH session and then start glxgears it freezes too.
