Title:
  Screen corrupted, "[TTM] Out of kernel memory"

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Description:    Ubuntu 12.10
  Release:        12.10

  After upgrading from Precise to Quantal Kubuntu, some applications
  cause the screen to become corrupted. If I switch to text console by
  Ctrl-Alt-F1, there's lots of the following messages running on the
  screen:

  [ 1260.017979] [TTM] Out of kernel memory

  One such application is 'easytag', it is typically causing such
  misbehavior within 2-3 minutes after startup. Killing the offending
  application makes everything go back to normal.

  The following is a report on kernel.org's bugzilla which seems
  relevant:

  I also use nouveau driver (GeForce 8600M GS). Precise Pangolin's
  kernel (3.2.0-34) did not exhibit this problem; the Quantal's kernel
  (3.5.0-19) does.
