Comment # 3 on bug 52411 from Ilia Mirkin

Does this still happen with linux v3.10-rc2 (latest at the time of writing)?

It would be nice to know what the first commit is that breaks things for you.
Please do a git bisect between v3.3 and v3.4 on the drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau
directory.

Alternatively (or in addition to), pick a recent kernel, get a crash dump
(similar to what the referenced redhat bug has), and provide disassembly of the
involved function (gdb nouveau.ko and then disassemble func_name). That way we
can tell exactly where it's dying. You might need to use netconsole to get the
crash dump, since it dies when initializing the video driver.
