Launching firefox is causing a system crash with a black or white
screen and diagonal lines across it. I've tried the latest nouveau
from git and the latest kernel. I can't find anything in the logs
unfortunately. Any ideas?

You have NV4C, but one could imagine that there would be similarities. See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73445 and feel free to add yourself to it if that matches your symptoms (esp if it's a 3.13 regression). Otherwise, more information would be nice. See http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs/ for the sort of information that's generally useful. -ilia

It seems to crash if it is opened after the system has been running for awhile. I tried nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 but it didn't help. - Grant
