I know some video drivers are so broken we don't want to run on them. I have an ATI Radeon Mobility 250. I thought this was a fairly common card. Is locking up the machine really acceptable here?
All we could do is blacklisting certain drivers or card IDs. If the system hard crashes or has a bluescreen it's a driver bug for sure. It is plainly impossible to make sure the tests do not crash anywhere, except by not having any tests at all.
I have never heard the name "ATI Radeon Mobility 250". It could be an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000, which has a rv250 chip in it. I have the same in my old laptop, the tests run without crashing(Some are failing due to clear driver bugs though, and I there aren't any newer laptop drivers available)
