Upon normal computer operation user session(GNOME-Shell) sometimes will just
terminate. Problem seems more common if two users are logged in(GNOME-Shell)
for a day.

GPU:
NVIDIA Corporation C77 [GeForce 8300] (rev a2)

kernel version:
3.12.0-upstream

I'm trying some change(adding it as patch) - no problem so far, but since I
have zero experience in kernel/driver workflow definitely not sure if it's OK.

Regards, K</pre>
