https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30817

           Summary: nouveau makes xorg hard lock at seemingly random times
           Product: xorg
           Version: git
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/nouveau
        AssignedTo: nouveau at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: jordan.w.bradley at gmail.com
         QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org


I am using an EVGA NVidia GT220 video card on Gentoo Linux. I'm using
libdrm,
mesa and nouveau from the git repositories. At seemingly random times my
computer locks up. I can still move the mouse cursor but I can't do anything
with what is on the screen. A kernel panic hadn't occurred because I could
still SSH into the machine. I thought it was the 3D effects of compiz since I
had gallium enabled when I compiled mesa. I switched back to metacity and the
desktop still would lock up. Would nouveau be a cause of this? If so what do
you need to find the problem and how would I get it?

Thanks.
