--- Comment #7 from Gleb <gleb at fastmail.com> ---
lspci doesn't hang when I invoke it from console. I also tried startx and
startxfce4 from console and it worked, so it probably some other thing?


I can confirm that the issue occured on 4.9.0 and did not occur on 4.8.14 on
the same userspace stuff. I only started upgrading it after multiple
unseccessfull reboots into 4.9.0. So I had stable stuff, tested 4.8.14 (no
problem) and 4.9.0 (problem persist). Then upgraded stuff, tested on 4.8.14 (no
problem) and 4.9.0 (problem persist).


I also recompiled 4.9.0 at some point before testing lspci (but not
specifically for that, I will try to revert the changes) so that it includes
nouveau into kernel and not as a module, though it still have the same issue.
Does it matter in what form nouveau is presented?


I want to clarify that the only process that hangs is Xorg (and probably
another which I noticed right now -- libvirtd, it also has red D symbol). The
system continue to work, I have access to console and can run stuff from there.
