Twice in a little over a week, nouveau has locked up on my system
with an Asus ENGT430 that is "Detected [as] an NVc0 generation
card (0x0c1080a1)" at boot time.  OS is Mageia 2, kernel
3.4.45-server-1.mga2.
Try a newer one, as proposed on the "troubleshooting" wiki page.
   At the time of both lockups, I had a
couple dozen Firefox windows plus several other miscellaneous
windows open.

Here are the some snippets from /var/log/messages a few days
before the first lock-up:

     May 27 10:24:25 one kernel: [779598.847459] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
gpuobj -28
     ...
     May 27 10:28:37 one kernel: [779850.989024] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
gpuobj -28
     ...
     May 27 10:28:45 one kernel: [779858.365759] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
Error creating object: -28 (3/0xbeef9039)


These happened at approximately the time of the first lockup.
Keyboard LEDs were inoperative.

     May 30 20:52:38 one kernel: [1075995.216570] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
PFIFO: write fault at 0x0000188000 [PAGE_NOT_PRESENT] from BAR3/BAR_WRITE on

     May 30 20:52:38 one kernel: [1075995.216579] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0:

     May 30 20:52:38 one kernel: [1075995.216594] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
PFIFO: write fault at 0x0038a20000 [PAGE_NOT_PRESENT] from PGRAPH/GPC0/PROP on 
channel 0x0000ac8000

These happened a little over an hour after booting following
increasing system RAM:

     Jun  1 14:16:25 one kernel: [ 4163.578441] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
PMFB0_SUBP0: 0x037f0040
     Jun  1 14:16:25 one kernel: [ 4163.578447] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
PMFB0_SUBP1: 0x037f0040

Nothing adverse was observed at this time:

     Jun  3 19:09:42 one kernel: [194241.366196] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
gpuobj -28

This was the time of the second lock-up:

     Jun  4 20:40:44 one kernel: [285949.704837] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
PFIFO: write fault at 0x01bcb20000 [INVALID_STORAGE_TYPE] from PGRAPH/GPC0/PROP 
on channel 0x0000ac8000
     Jun  4 20:40:44 one kernel: [285949.704846] [drm] nouveau 0000:06:00.0: 
PFIFO: unknown status 0x40000000

Some months ago, following advice from this list, I had
successfully restored function by doing these commands via ssh
from another machine:

     echo 0 > /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind
     modprobe -r nouveau
     modprobe nouveau

These two times, the "modprobe -r nouveau" returned a message
indicating the module was busy.  On the second time, June 4,
/sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind still had "1" rather than the
"0' I had written to it.  I'm taking that means the kernel had
failed to unbind the console and module.

Any additional suggestions for getting it unbound so I can remove
and reload the module?  (...preferably without needing to reboot
the machine.)

(Truth be known, I have some GTX560 cards I'd love to put to use,
but last time I tried, the system wouldn't even boot with one of
those cards.)

Thanks,

Robert
