Ok, just to fill in the blanks: was this a regression?  Was there a
kernel or X or GNOME upgrade before which the system worked fine and
after which it broke?

X devs: it looks like there are two sets of symptoms here ---
sometimes there are GPU lockups, and other times (e.g., the syslog
from 2012-01-22) page table corruption with no obvious trouble before
that.  Questions:

 - is there any simple way to figure out what exactly is causing the
   regression?  E.g., after starting X without accelaration can we
   explicitly provoke whatever caused trouble?

 - is it normal that after a lockup the GPU fails to reset?  Even if
   the GPU lockup itself is not well understood, is that later failure
   fixable?
