Hello,

I am currently using the non-free NVIDIA drivers with a GeForce 8400 GS. My
screen locks up whenever I use Nouveau to the point where I have to
hard-shutdown my machine. I can't afford hardware damage so I'm temporarily
using the non-free drivers.

Anyway ...

I am not sure what specifically causes the lock ups. I can not get to an
emergency terminal to determine the cause in the moment either. At first,
everything but the mouse cursor and sound seizes up and then those two seize up
and there's excessive HDD activity. My only choice is to press and hold the pwr
button and wait for it to shutdown.

I don't currently have a log file for the issue. I will switch back to Nouveau
once I get a response of some kind. Haha.


OS: Ubuntu GNU/Linux x86-64 13.10
Linux: 3.11.0-15-generic
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS
X.Org version: 1.14.5
