Description sune 2013-03-14 19:17:59 UTC 
Using xorg-edgers PPA on ubuntu 12.10 but with newer vanilla kernel, I consistently get the following when attempting to start the DE Cinnamon as well as Gnome 3 upon which it is based:

cinnamon[4414]: segfault at 1 ip 00007f0bf3d24f95 sp 00007fffac52e440 error 4 in nouveau_dri.so[7f0bf3cb6000+143000]

According to dpkg, the version is git20130227.

Card is a NVIDIA Corporation G92 [GeForce 9800 GT] (rev a2)

Please advise as to how I can provide more info and possibly test patches.

Best regards,

Sune Mølgaard

I've been rather conservative in specifying the importance, but since it precludes, and apparently Ungifted, from using any form of 3D-accelerated desktop environment, I don't feel wrong in bumping it up a few notches...

I can also confirm this bug, same error. Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT on Arch Linux tested with mesa from git today (22/3) and 11/3.

Today:
I'm on kernel 3.9-rc5 (was 3.8) / gnome 3.8 (was 3.6) / mesa and nouveau (current git).
Seems works fine now.

I can also confirm i dont have this "bug" more.. Therefor i set it as Fixed
Comment 7 sune 2013-04-07 17:07:51 UTC 
Just wanted to chime in with support for "RESOLVED FIXED" status.

Incidentally, as the reporter, I specified where I got my packages from. What seems to have effected the fixing for me, was a new (package) release of the libdrm-nouveau(2?) package.

I have not updated libdrm just "mesa"/"nouveau" from git. So for me it seems like it have been fixed in mesa.
