Bug 39962

Here is another of these false GPU lockup bugs.  Guessing this is a dupe of #39947, but filing separately for your comparison purposes.  Forwarding from launchpad user mpt:

This particular individual has had this same experience for a couple years or so now, and has filed a few dozen reports about it.  Previously we had thought it was a conflict with vesafb but you can see from the logs that there are no other framebuffer drivers loaded.  I'm wondering if it's something peculiar with his hardware, although we've seen reports like this from other various people too (I'll file a few others if they look interesting).
