Radics Ottó, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

Could you please advise on how to reproduce this specifically?

Also, how often does this occur?

[Radics Ottó (saboteur777)]

I don't know how to reproduce this issue. It might be related to the
nouveau driver, because after I enabled the proprietary driver from nVidia,
I haven't experience the issue.

It happened approximately once or twice a day.

Radics Ottó, as per https://launchpadlibrarian.net/227532477/Lspci.txt the only graphics card that was enabled at the time of the crash was the Intel one.

However, if you were intending to use that setup going forward that caused this issue (i.e. no nvidia drivers installed) it would be helpful to see if this is already resolved in Ubuntu by testing http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
