This is similar but not quite the same bug as #107829

I recently updated arch linux and attempted to use the nouvea driver with my GTX 660 GPU. System will reliable crash after about 30 seconds to 1 min in KDE plasma with the following kernel message.

Sep 25 21:18:49 sokka kernel: nouveau 0000:01:00.0: gr: TRAP ch 2 [023fe33000 Xorg[406]]

Placing nouveau.noaccel=1 as a kernel boot parameter fixes the issue but it is not ideal.
Comment 1 Ilia Mirkin 2018-09-27 02:14:47 UTC
A number of GTX 660 users have a variety of issues with nouveau. Can you see if using blob grctx firmware helps? Follow the instructions at

https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/VideoAcceleration/#firmware

[make sure you use 325.15 and not another version]

This should get you the appropriate grctx firmware. You can then make use of it by booting with

nouveau.config=NvGrUseFW=1

(Make sure that the firmware ends up whereever the nouveau module is... if it's loaded from initrd, then it should be in initrd, etc.)
