Created attachment 54688 [details] created by dmesg caused by an "infinite loop" in kernel/nouveau/xserver filling the kernel log with "fail ttm_validate...." messages. Debian wheezy AMD64 Nvidia GeForce 6150 both kernel 3.0.0-* as well as kernel 3.1.0-* the issue occurred after a monthly system upgrade (xorg.... from 2:1.11.2.901-1 to 2:1.11.1.902-1); before this upgrade the system went smoothely (without any xorg.conf...) I run a second PC using the same SW version (same upgrades....) but with a newer MB (GeForce 8200). On the GeForce8200-system the kernel 3.1.0-* not only freezes but crashes whereas kernel 3.0.0-* only periodically shows a message "drm EDID checksunm error...." all attachments are related to the GeForce 6150 system: kernel_log.txt....dmesg lspci.txt.........lspci -k dpkg.txt..........dpkg -l Xorg.0.log........copy from /var/log/.... xorg.conf

It appears that this bug report has laid dormant for quite a while. Sorry we haven't gotten to it. Since we fix bugs all the time, chances are pretty good that your issue has been fixed with the latest software. Please give it a shot. (Linux kernel 3.10.7, xf86-video-nouveau 1.0.9, mesa 9.1.6, or their git versions.) If upgrading to the latest isn't an option for you, your distro's bugzilla is probably the right destination for your bug report. In an effort to clean up our bug list, we're pre-emptively closing all bugs that haven't seen updates since 2011. If the original issue remains, please make sure to provide fresh info, see http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs/ for what we need to see, and re-open this one. Thanks, The Nouveau Team
