I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 with Nvidia 367.57, but still having this EQ overflow...

A machine freezes such that it cannot be accessed locally anymore (keyboard dead, screen black or with last image, sometimes mouse can be moved but no action on clicks) but we have full access via ssh. There are no heavy processes or such running. Freeze happens sometime during usage but also during screen- lock without background activity. We have observed the problem * on Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04, * on PCs running a multitude of graphics adapters (nvidia, ati, intel) * on PCs running different versions of e.g. the nvidia driver The only log file with some information related to this is /var/log/Xorg.0.log where we find ==>>=================================================================== (EE) [mi] EQ overflowing.

(EE) [mi] EQ overflow continuing. 100 events have been dropped. ==>>=================================================================== That then counts in steps of 100 up to 1000 and then the machine is frozen locally. Different to other bug reports on similar issues, it appears here that libnss_nis.so.2 and libnss_compat.so.2 are involved (user login is via yp). Any workaround would be appreciated.
