             Bug #: 41892
           Summary: The mouse turns into an 128x128 square and GPU locks
                    up on NV34

Occasionally on NV34, the mouse changes into a white square of 128x128 with
some black blur on it. X locks up, though I can still move the mouse. When I
close or restart X the GPU locks up completely; the screen turns black and
stays black. SysRq magic keys still work to reboot; restarting X through
Alt-SysRq-K does not work. Happens on 2.6.38 and 3.0.4 kernels - I am now
running 3.1-rc9 to see if it solves the problem. It has not yet occurred with
that kernel but I am only running it for a couple of hours now.

The problem does not happen with my NV05 (Micro-Star MS-8806).

When it occurs again, I'll try to ssh into the computer to get a dmesg & xorg
log.
