Comment 0 for bug 905109

I was trying to diagnose a bug with workspaces and moving around from desktop to desktop when the screen suddenly froze (no corruption, just stopped updating). Could not vt switch, but could ssh in and file this bug report from the console. Looking at dmesg appears to be a drm fault.
