No, the i915_error_state had everything I needed to see. It is the old ddx bug that was hardcoding a maximum relocation address that never corresponded with an actual hw limit. As soon we try to use memory above that value, the GPU decides not to listen to us any more.
Fixed in xf86-video-intel 2.14.901
I really don't think that's the case.
I have run the F14 X server for a *long* time without these issues on this machine, and today I now got a second GPU hang with the current git tree. I was in the middle of just writing an email in chrome, nothing fancy going on at all.
So please please *please* take a second look. Because I think it's triggered by the i915 changes, or you undid a workaround that used to work fine.
