So, having upgraded to natty I find the nouveau-death problem is just as
bad as before. It crashes 3 times yesterday. The current state is that I
rebooted the machine and the graphics card is still messed up and just
showing a few random stripy bars. It's quite impressive that this
breakage can survive a 'hold the power button down reboot' cycle (It
doesn't always - it may be to do with waiting long enough after power
down before restart).

I can see no pattern at all to when it stops working - I may just be
typing in a term, or browsing, or even doing nothing.

I guess it would be worth trying an upstream latest driver, although
2.6.38.8 sounds fairly current to me.
