dmesg
Nouveau graphics on my system (Gentoo) often freezes with errors in dmesg.=
=20
The system works fine for some time, but starts freezing at random intervals
(after 3 mins or 10 mins or 2 hours of work, etc) in random windows (chromi=
um,
krusader, smplayer, login screen after auto-lock, etc) and a lot of artifac=
ts
appear on the screen. After about 30 secs it freezes completely. My keyboard
does not react to any key combinations, mouse pointer moves with lags and m=
ouse
buttons do not work so only hard reset helps.
For example, here are two photos of my frozen screen with artifacts:

I wrote a script that saves dmesg to a file each 5 secs to get error logs.
Please find two examples with different errors attached.
I use the following versions of packages:
media-libs/mesa-12.0.1
x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.18-r1
x11-base/xorg-server-1.18.4
x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.11
x11-libs/libdrm-2.4.70
sys-kernel/hardened-sources-4.7.10
My graphics card is Nvidia GeForce GTS 250 (G92 chip).
