No surprise but since the 14.04.2 20150217 images still have 3.16.0-30 generic they are affected. Since it's a hardware specific corner issue I don't know if it's worth mentioning in the release notes or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is

Regarding Trusty with the OEM 3.13 series kernel: This is NOT fixed in 3.13.0-46-generic from trusty-proposed. That can be verified because using the nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 boot parameter gets me past the screen corruption/X freeze. So evidently the upstream fix has not yet trickled down to the

It turns out that both 14.04 and 14.04.1 are affected by this bug. I had to look in the installer log to see what version I'd begun with (and have been running on that box as my stable OS) = Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Tahr - Alpha i386 (20140129). So I was undoubtedly able to install Trusty at that

Hi Tim, As far as I can tell ATM the only difference in most of these crashes/freezes/screen-corruptions is the frequency with which they occur and the screen color depending on what point during boot and/or operation the freeze occurs. Like this is the pic I included with original bug report:

I have been able to reproduce that a few times in a gnome-shell session but it's not specific to any one task. It crashed/froze twice just looking for logs and once again while launching Firefox. OTOH I can use the classic session w/o a problem - in fact I'm streaming the nightly news right now.

That looks like video corruption, and it is possible that gnome-classic has some of the animations disabled compared to gnome-shell, but I can't think of any other difference. .xsession-errors is obsolete, logs will by default be in ~/.cache/upstart/gnome-session-GNOME.log under upstart boot or

Perhaps oddly (perhaps not oddly at all) I decided to reboot and select GNOME Classic rather than booting into the standard GNOME Shell and it seems to work fine - no screen tearing or X-freezes under fairly heavy use. So maybe nouveau itself is simply not capable of running GNOME Shell. I find
