Since I upgraded from wheezy to jessie, mesa no longer works ok in my
machine. When I start stellarium, for example, the screen becomes a
mosaic and the machine freezes completely.

(I'm using "severity: serious" because this is a regression).

I'm not sure which package is the good one to report this. It could be
mesa-utils, since "glxinfo" already crashes my machine, but AFAIK the
X server is to blame here.

This is what lspci -v says about my system:

I attach Xorg.0.log as well.

Feel free to ask me whatever additional info you might need to debug this.

Thanks.

Sorry for not getting to this bug sooner.  I think it is the same
problem as #758460, does booting with the nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 kernel
parameter help?

Cheers,

Looks similar, yes, but unfortunately adding nouveau.config=NvMSI=0
does not make any difference in my case.

Same here. And it also crashes when chromium window is closing.

I attached a gdb in remote console to get a backtrace, here is the result:
