The only one I found was the following from upstream changelog:

commit 2fa3397e348161a3394e2b456f065921272a056a

    nouveau_xv: Avoid reading off the end of the source image on NV50+
    
    The 'w' argument to NVCopyNV12ColorPlanes is used to index into the
    source image. line_len is rounded up to 8 on NV50+, so if the source
    image (+ left offset) is not rounded to 8, NVCopyNV12ColorPlanes could
    read past the end of the array and crash X. This change can cause the
    last few horizontal pixels of dst to not be initialized, but they
    should be truncated by the renderer anyways.

No, I don't have an NV50+ card, but rather a NV40 card. Could you
have a short look if my problem is related to this issue?  If yes,
I'll try to compile a patched package for testing.

Thanks!
