Created attachment 97690 [details] Xorg.0.log Hi! I'm using archlinux x86_64 with latest mesa,nouveau from the official repos and nouveau-fw from the aur. (Hw: NVE6: GTX 660) I get random screen freezes every 10 min - 1 hour in a gnome session. Once the screen freezes the mouse and sometimes the keyboard goes unresponsive too .(even the leds for num lock do not respond) I can switch to another tty (I get nouveau messages here: "cannot idle channel..."), kill the running gnome session, switch back then restart the gnome session but the restarted gnome session gets back to the very last image before the freeze and it is unresponsive. After 10-30 secs that restarted session crashes and I cannot get X working again without a complete restart. X log attached.
Can you check if this is the same as bug #72180 ? i.e. do the problems go away if using blob pgraph fw?

"Jorden Bass" mentioned "Sometimes, shortly before the lockup, graphics will become highly corrupted.". That was my screen yesterday before one of those freezes: http://i.imgur.com/tV99i7t.jpg First only the "regular" X clients were weird then the gnome UI got these black white rectangles too. Going to try Jorden's firmware files, thanks.

I couldn't load Jorden's firmware files, output of dmesg | grep nouveau: http://bit.ly/1kVGpeY No luck with the files from nouveau-fw either, output of dmesg | grep nouveua: http://bit.ly/1jAQkDW They are pretty similar. Do you think extracting the firmware files from scratch could help?
Appearently the loading failed because of my mkinitcpio config, after adding all the necesseary files to the image the external firmware loads succesfully. Testing it now.
