Hello! Someone on IRC reported me the bellow:
The RAM fails when the machine comes back from suspend mode. The problem is that the user don't command the suspend; the computer goes to sleep alone after a few minutes without user action. The user is using Ubuntu 13.4 (installed yesterday). His VGA adapter: Intel Corporation C51 [GeForce Go 6150] (rev a2), in a notebook HP pavilion DV9000. I know that this bug report refers at GeForce 8600M GT, but the dmesg output is very similar. Certainly that user is dealing with a «crash with nouveau kernel error messages "fail ttm_validate", "validate vram_list" and "validate: -12" Edit». See http://paste.ubuntu.com/5848672/ for dmesg and lspci output please. I don't know if I would must to create a new bug report... Thank you for your attention.

I believe it is nouveau's fault as I found these lines in /var/log/kern.log: Oct 28 18:00:50 jakob-Vostro-1500 kernel: [ 1454.599145] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: fail ttm_validate Oct 28 18:00:50 jakob-Vostro-1500 kernel: [ 1454.599150] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate vram_list Oct 28 18:00:50 jakob-Vostro-1500 kernel: [ 1454.599204] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate: -12 The crashes appear to be nondeterministic: Most of the time, when I boot the system with external displays plugged into the VGA port, something crashes. In the worst cases the whole system crashes and only SysRq keys are working. At other times I'm still able to reach the terminal via ctrl-alt-f1. Even if the system survived, the window manager often later on hangs and displays false colors and sometimes recovers. The log files automatically attached by apport should document the latter error symptom. I'd be happy to supply more information if you can give me hints how to gather them.
