Hi list,

Both times X has locked up, firefox was just starting to load a web page
that I'd clicked on. (Two different websites.)

I can ssh into the machine and use top to see /usr/bin/Xorg using 100%
of CPU (an older single-core amd 32-bit cpu)>

Strace shows Xorg is printing endless numbers of the messages below:

Kernel is today's Linus.git with its (unmodified) nouveau support.

My freezing problem was fixed by this patch:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=38240

I'm following up here because the patch still hasn't made it to Linus.git
as of today, 2010-Sep-06.
