Matthew Paul Thomas - I've forwarded this bug upstream to
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39962 - please subscribe
yourself to this bug, in case they need further information or wish you
to test something.

In general, these false gpu lockups aren't something we're terribly
worried about; the only user-visible effect is the apport popup and we
turn that off for release.  However, it does hint at something being not
quite right under the hood in how the system is loading up the kernel
video driver; I've chatted with apw about this and we investigated a few
ideas but the fact that it still is happening means those fixes weren't
sufficient, so I'm forwarding it upstream to see if we can get some
additional ideas or advice.

Theoretically we could probably suppress the error dialog, however this
potentially could mask real bugs, so I'd prefer leaving apport as is and
hope this issue gets sorted out eventually.

If you file additional bug reports on this same issue, please go ahead
and dupe those reports to this report, which we'll use as the master for
your issue.
