Debug info generated by Debian tool

Since I moved to Gnome 3, I experience a freeze of the nouveau driver. I never
experienced a freeze with Gnome 2 or XFCE.

Under a normal use the freeze happens once a week or so, but I have been able
to reproduce it almost deterministically:
- launch Gnome Shell
- open my RSS reader (Emacs/Gnus)
- quickly open several RSS items, which creates several tabs in Firefox (in
particular this triggers the notification pop-up at the bottom of the screen)

The freeze inevitably occurs then. Display entirely frozen except the mouse.

I am able to SSH into the machine, kill the X server and start a new one. But
the display remains frozen, so reboot is the only way to restore a sane state
(I could not unload the "nouveau" kernel module).

I am using Debian testing ("Wheezy"), which has version
0.0.16+git20111201+b5534a1 of the nouveau driver.

I?attach some debug output created using Debian debug script, a full kernel
log, and a GDB trace that I generated by attaching to the X process while it
was in a frozen state.

Don't hesitate to ask for more debug information, since I have a way to
reproduce the problem.

Please retest this with more current software and see if the problem still
happens. (For the purpose of this discussion, "more current" means
kernel >3.10, mesa >= 9.1, xf86-video-nouveau >= 1.0.9)

I no longer have access to the hardware. I am therefore closing this issue.
