[Nouveau] accelerated application freeze

[abcdeluxe]

Hi,

I was having problems with accelerated applications freezing my system
using the Debian jessie nouveau driver, now I am using the newer Debian stretch one.
Both gave the same error.

I was able to get some information via shh:
journalctl brought up the following:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
gnome-session[4703]: Window manager warning: Window 0x2c00008 () sets an
MWM hint indicating it isn't resizable, but sets min size 316 x 265 and
max size 2147483647 x 2147483647; this doesn't make much sense.
