Description Tom Tromey 2018-11-29 16:32:20 UTC

I'm using x86-64 Fedora 29 on an HP Z desktop machine.

I suspect (I don't really know) that some interaction between
the nouveau driver and the hardware on this system will randomly
(I don't know the trigger) cause a severe slowdown, making
the machine unusable.

I'm appending the results of "journalctl -l | grep nouveau"
in case this is helpful.  Mostly it consists of "timeout"
warnings, but there is a "FAULT" in there with an "at" value
that I didn't previously find in bugzilla.
