When it happens screen freeze for a few seconds, then it goes blank for a f=
ew
seconds, then it comes back with strange artifacts on the screen, system is
basically unresponsive, the only thing you can do is a hard reset.

That's gonna be a problem, I don't have that image anymore.
Anyway, it doesn't matter, seems like I'm the only one with this issue, or =
at
least the only one reporting it. Main thing is that dpm finally works witho=
ut
problems with profile set to high, except (in my case) problem happens agai=
n,
but only with kernels 3.17 and above and only when playing games. Could be =
mesa
related somehow in combination with something introduced in kernel 3.17.
One thing I can say for sure, with kernels 3.16 and below mesa version does=
n't
matter, I tried every mesa from 10.0 to 10.6 and this problem never happene=
d.
It's something in the kernel but I guess it's very tricky to determine which
commit exactly. There are 57 commits between 3.16 and 3.17
