In addition to in slideshow mode in libreoffice, I confirmed this problem when 
playing 
high bitrate movies in fullscreen mode (any movie players).

Interestingly, a mp4 movie pasted on a slide in libreoffice that hangs the GPU 
doesn't
induce the same problem when it is played on a movie player.   However, playing 
a 
high bitrate (say, a DVD iso) movie on a movie player hangs.
Probably it occurs when GPU gets high load or sometime of buffer overflow 
(speculation).

Perhaps this is a duplicate of other bugs observed on haswell's
integrated GPUs.


thanks.
