Things also became better with the Cirrus driver and VMs. After being able to login I noticed that my KVM VM (which runs on a rather power efficient, iow not too fast, machine) still has occasional crashes of this type. And there you can see (and have to wait) every graphical "goodness" like fading in and out or docking. While the host I run the Xen VM (which uses the same cirrus emulation) runs rather smoothly (because it has more CPU power) and I think I did not see any crash, yet. That somehow leads me to believe this could be a problem (in the cirrus case) of the communication between X driver, llvm-pipe and the emulated card being overrun in some way. Not sure how this relates to the nouveau case. I would not think the X driver could be too fast for the 3D pipe in hardware. But maybe this gives X driver people a hint.
