Created attachment 109569 [details] journalctl crash info, contains both dmesg and Xorg logs After a recent update of my Fedora 21 box I've experienced this crash twice. The entire desktop except for mouse freezes and I cannot even VT switch to console. If the keypress gets registered I end up with a powered down display and a switch back to X results in a completely corrupted screen. If I don't try a VT switch I can still move the mouse but other than that the machine appears dead. It eventually stops responding to ping and the only way out is a hard reboot. I have been using this machine for quite a while and I haven't experienced this before until yesterday. I checked the yum logs but there doesn't seem to be anything directly related to the graphics except maybe for this: Updated xkeyboard-config-2.13-2.fc21.noarch @updates-testing Update 2.13-3.fc21.noarch @updates-testing Updated xorg-x11-font-utils-1:7.5-23.fc21.x86_64 @updates-testing Update 1:7.5-25.fc21.x86_64 @updates-testing Updated xorg-x11-fonts-Type1-7.5-11.fc21.noarch @updates-testing Update 7.5-14.fc21.noarch @updates-testing Updated xorg-x11-server-utils-7.7-9.fc21.x86_64 @updates-testing Update 7.7-10.fc21.x86_64 @updates-testing Updated xorg-x11-xkb-utils-7.7-10.fc21.x86_64 @fedora Relevant packages installed: xorg-x11-drv-ati - 7.5.0-1.fc21 xorg-x11-server-Xorg.x86_64 - 1.16.1-1.fc21 kernel.x86_64 - 3.17.2-300.fc21 Custom-built mesa 10.3.3 with "Fix v5" from "BUG 60879" applied My card is a 7730 LE, PID:VID 1002:aab0 X and kernel apparently caught and logged the problem, relevant journalctl output is attached. It usually takes a few hours for this to happen, the only thing the two crashes I've had so far have in common is a Flash video playing in the background when the system froze.

I haven't tried any of the fixes suggested there yet. I did however updated to 3.17.3 and the box survived yesteday without crashing. Is there anything in 3.17.3 that could have fixed or at least partially mitigagted the problem? Should I stick with 3.17.2 until you have save more definitive clue as to what is causing this? It usually takes a few hours for the crash to happen so I might just have been lucky though. I'll keep an eye on this report my findings in the "BUG 85647" thread. Thanks...

No, it doesn't. Apart from one isolated issue that had nothing to do with GPU my machine has been rock-solid for months. It currently runs up-to-date Fedora 22.
