           Summary: NVD0 card hard lock-ups entire system at random
                    moments

          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified

            Status: NEW

         Component: Driver/nouveau
           Product: xorg

My card is a GF119 (NVD9). A relatively new card on an aged board (Asus A8N-E).

It seems to lock-up at random moments, Magic SysRq does nothing. Only a hard
reboot is possible.

Sometimes it happens when the contents of the screen is changing, sometimes
not. I found it to have locked after an idle period a couple of times.

I'm currently testing the nvidia proprietary blob after swapping out RAM
(which
was not it). This all started after I swapped this card for another broken
nVidia card. But I figured it might be coincidence.

If the nvidia proprietary driver proofs to not suffer from this issue. I will
try to test the nouveau driver with as many features disabled (e.g. PCIE) and
see if that helps.

Any suggestions are really welcome.

Card specs below.

Did this ever work properly, or has it always failed? (Or is this too new of a
setup?)

First order of business would be to try disabling MSI -- that will be off for
the final 3.12 release (although will be making a come-back for 3.13 in all
likelihood). Try booting with nouveau.config=NvMSI=0. [I assume you're using
a
3.12-rc based on the messages you gave, but having a full dmesg is always
preferable.]

Would it be possible to set up a serial console or netconsole to see if there
are any further messages?

This never worked, unfortunately. I got the card a few months ago.

When I got the card, MSI was disabled in nouveau. It then locked up as well. I
was hoping this would fix it.

I know netconsole, I think I tried but that gave no results.

Will attach laptop and try again when I have some time.

But I'm testing the nvidia blob first to rule out a broken card, is that ok?

Does this still happen with recent kernels?

The mobo died a while ago. So the problem is solved.

Thank you for your effort.
