Sorry, I meant freeze. In bug 694953 the maintainer said he could see
my kernel was "unhappy" from the original dmesg log from when this
happened with the Intel driver.
I rebooted after the last freeze, not knowing I would have to open a
new bug, so the dmesg log here probably only shows since after the
reboot. When I thought the Radeon problem was the same bug, I attached
another dmesg log there (message 37) that I think covers the time that
the freeze occurred, so perhaps you can find some information in there?
