Bug#807040: general: System hangs and then restarts (kernel panic)

I have not heard back from you, so I would assume that this issue will never be fixed. Just for others that might run into the same problem, here a summary: Debian Jessie, as of March 6, 2016 does not work on a Lenovo T61 due to a bug in nouveau and/or X11. Nouveau makes this machine kernel panic,

So I was forced to downgrade to Debian Wheezy and I had some people that were constantly telling me that this must be a hardware issue, and it is not. Wheezy works perfectly on this laptop, no crashes, no nothing, stable as a rock. Now I still have an image on a seperate harddisk to troubleshoot th

Hi, Sorry, I was getting a little negative, this is really hard. I appreciate any help you can give. If I had the kernel logs, could you do something with them and help determine what crashed. I set up kexec, kdump to collect the logs. Thanks, Markus On Tue, Dec 22, 2015 at 3:57 AM, Nigra Truo

That does not work neither unfortunately. I installed the proprietary driver and now X crashes. At least the whole machine does not crash, but I can open a Desktop, KDE or Gnome, then open an app, maximize the window and I get a prompt crash. At least that one will be a little easier to troubleshoo

I tried Kernel 4.2 from backports, no dice, thing still crashes. How do I get the new version of nouveau? Backports does not seem to offer any newer version. I could compile nouveau from scratch, but it seems to be very complicated and hairy. I might also go away from nouveau and use the proprietar

Hey, thanks for your assistance. I found some logs that show that nouveau is logging some insane amount of stuff, seems to be errors nonstop, in one instance it is more than a thousand lines of the very same error. I attached the logs. One thing I wonder is how to deactivate nouveau for now, I ca
