Peter B P, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

Gfx card is a newer nvidia, running the nouveau driver with no desktop effects enabled. I've twice experienced this, with the screen briefly blanking out to a black tty, outputting a line of text but instantly returing me to the user login screen. All apps running at the time get killed. Logs only show this, nothing else: Jun 9 22:41:05 winter9 kernel: [25050.272102] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: nouveau_channel_free: freeing fifo 2 Jun 9 22:41:06 winter9 kernel: [25050.927122] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Allocating FIFO number 2 Jun 9 22:41:06 winter9 kernel: [25050.930600] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: nouveau_channel_alloc: initialised FIFO 2 I've semi-consistently been able to cause this crash when I open a new Firefox window, at the same time as I have VLC running in the background, playing a video. I've tried causing the crash again, but it appears it only happens after the system has been running for a while.
