Log of when the error occurred.

While launching Garry's Mod (always on the same spot) my display always freezes completely, and the radeon driver spams my journal (116 lines per second):

journalctl --until=23:37:45 --since=23:37:44 | wc
    116    1371   11047

The message repeated over and over is 

radeon 0000:01:00.0: GPU fault detected: 146 0x08636004
radeon 0000:01:00.0:   VM_CONTEXT1_PROTECTION_FAULT_ADDR   0x00000000
radeon 0000:01:00.0:   VM_CONTEXT1_PROTECTION_FAULT_STATUS 0x00000000
VM fault (0x00, vmid 0) at page 0, read from unknown (0)

My graphics card:
lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Cape Verde XT [Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition]

Please note that that game is 32-bit, and therefore probably uses the 32-bit driver.

Attached is the interesting part of the log.

Which version(s) of libdrm do you have? If it's 2.4.49, please try current Git instead.
