Comment 261 for bug 1041790

Is there any ongoing development to fix this bug? I still see it with
Linux <hostname> 3.13.0-35-generic #62-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 15 01:58:42 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And the latest intel drivers as provided by intel linux graphics installer from
https://01.org/linuxgraphics/

Many times my system freezes few minutes after starting to watch a movie with vlc. I have my screen connected through a receiver (hdmi for audio + video) with the linux system. The probability for a freeze is higher when the hdmi receiver was powered of for some time before playing the movie than when I do a reboot and hdmi is always on.

I'm happy to help with crashdumps as far as I'm able to collect them.
