That's what I thought Greg but wanted to make sure. AFAIK I'm not having any hardware related issues but I would like to know what the 'Hangcheck timer' is. Possibly you can enlighten me?
That looks like a driver-specific timer, the code would tell you more, take a look at it!
I'm pretty sure that's a timer for the i915 driver that detects if the GPU has gone into an infinite loop due to (usually) buggy programming from the operating system....
