... or a bug in nouveau (and/or the kernel). I think is it works with
an other driver this bug simply should be reassigned there. And yes,
a nouveau/kernel bug *can* make the system freeze. This doesn't make it
a LibO bug, though.

CCing kernel and X teams.

FTR, from the initial report:

> Kernel: Linux 2.6.37-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores)
