Public bug reported:

I get messages like the following in the journal:

kernel: nouveau 0000:0a:00.0: fifo: CACHE_ERROR - ch 7 [chromium-
browse[6657]] subc 3 mthd 15ec data 00000000


I can still SSH in.

Chromium Version 53.0.2785.143 Built on Ubuntu , running on Ubuntu 16.10
(64-bit)

What you expected to happen:

  Chrome Browser window to open.

What happened instead:

  Outline of Chrome Browser window appeared and then Xorg froze. Mouse
point could be moved on one display but between displays. Nothing was
responsive on the UI.

Running Chromium with:

    chromium-browser -gpu

works and does not freeze.

Regards
