Hi, I'm experiencing occasionally GPU lockups. So far I can tell, that in most cases iceweasel is involved. After opening a new tab, the image freezes, while the mouse can still be moved. After some time (or when I press Ctrl+Alt+F2) I can read the message “failed to idle channel“ (see attached logs). As some developers wish to have a different report for each GPU lookup issue (which can't be distinguished by the end user well) I open a new report for this issue.
Please try a 3.18 kernel from experimental, and if you still experience GPU lockups, report them upstream. See http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs/ for instructions. Cheers, Sven
