Xubuntu groovy QA-test (live) on
hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
No issues during test before this issue, I'd mounted an external drive and was using random found files to open & view files using installed apps. On opening a movie type of file, it started playing in parole on one display, I was jumping forward to different parts of the video file expecting to soon close & it and move to next file, alas both displays became unusuble
** problem
at first no issues moving the 'video' forward, then both screens suddenly showed blocky-graphics (pre-digital era untuned-tv) which seemed to change on mouse clicks. At first I found pattern hard to detect, as it switched black&white, colored-blocks, then black-screen with cursor.
It settled down to black-screen with cursor (correct except black screen), right-click would make it black-white-blocky (like untuned analogue tv), right click again and it would return to black background with normal cursor. On occasion both displays flicker white though (the image on right click seems to vary on where the mouse-pointer is)
My Xubuntu/XFCE gui session is gone & unusuable.
** expected result
I expected `parole` to cope with my various jumps in the video file, until I closed it.
I see no squashfs errs in dmesg/journalctl, both show issues with `nouveau` [440.365961]

Possibly I should have filed against `xserver-xorg-video-nouveau` or even `libdrm-nouveau2` (it was a video playing)
I won't take a photo, it'd require video as screen isn't always static though it is most of the time (depends where pointer is on screen)
