There are a number of fixes about pageflipping with drm/i915 in the changelog of 2.6.34.2. So, I installed this new kernel and rebuilt xf86-video-intel without the patch to disable pageflipping. I have a G45 graphics and I suffered from frequent hangs with previous kernel versions and a 2D driver with pageflipping enabled. Now, using 2.6.34.2 and pageflipping enabled, I had my desktop running for 6 hours and no hangs occurred so far. I'll keep it running and report back if an hang occurs.
Thank you for this, please keep reporting it. We actually don't want to have page flipping disabled indefinitely.
