Bug#691068: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: freeze (except mouse), Segmentation fault at address 0x300000008
ok, I've done testing: 1) removing Option GLXVBlank on from xorg.conf remove hangs on old driver. 2) Putting back that option and compiling new nouveau from link below fix hangs. xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.1-4 Some strange side effect: there is small colorfull noise between location changes in game. Kinda unusuall, but don't crash or broke anything. Outside that all other works fine.

It seems that this is triggered by enabling the GLXVBlank option in xorg.conf, and that there is a fix in version 1.0.3¹. I'll see to include this in the Debian package. OK, I'll disable it and try to play for some time to see if problems stops. It would be even better if you could apply the attached patch or build the package from git¹. I don't have time this weekend, but I intend to upload in a few days after asking what other fixes might be suitable for wheezy.

If so, image freeze, only mouse pointer is moving. All other activity (sound, networking, disks) is fine. Killing (-9) X server is only one way to revive system without reboot. Does this become any better if you disable AIGLX in xorg.conf? Also, do you use a compositing window manager? Nope, thanks, I'll try this. Yes, I ran gnome3 (is it counts as compositing manager?) Application to get freeze: Eternal Lands client (MMORPG): http://www.eternal-lands.com/el_linux_193.zip Sorry, I'm not going to run random binaries from random websites to try and reproduce this. That just a sample. Any graphically intensive application cause that problem. After that there is constant flood of messages from 'EQ overflow continuing' They indicate that the GPU is hung. Means problem are with hardware? But nvidia binary works without problem, so it's not like 'ran game and got snow on screen'. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
