Nice one, your gpu seems to have simply disappeared. And the ringbuffer
contains a rather peculiar cmd sequence. Putting Chris (maybe he
recognizes the pattern) and Ben (he's got a patch in the works to dump a
debug register that might be interesting here) on cc. It's too late atm
for me to think about this some more.
