> Can you reproduce the "GPU lockup" message completely without X?

It's not reproducible without X.. I've ran things like "dmesg && dmesg && dmesg
&& dmesg && dmesg", played a hi-res movie in mplayer using "-vo fbdev" and "-vo
caca". Nothing.

I've tried with a "gtkterm" session, and the problem didn't occur. Then I tried
starting a firefox session, and changed VT while firefox was starting up: full
lock up, SysRq wouldn't even work (I was root, not sure if it matters).

Then I tested a gnome-session as a regular user, and the problem didn't show
up.

So it seems to be related with changing VT in some circumstances. It seems that
its not possible to rule out X after all...
