Please update to at least xorg-x11-server-1.12.3-2.fc17 and reopen if this is still reproduceable.

Some graphic unstability?
I was just making a comment on facebook and then clicking 'Esc' to go back to the streaming (on Firefox Stable).

Just navigating the web (with Firefox). But I think it's an issue with the GPU (nVidia).
Screen goes black and after that shows messages like: "GPU lockup - switching to software fbcon"
Fails several times and then I just reboot.

As usual I had multiple Firefox windows open, plus Thunderbird, plus a console or two, plus Eclipse, plus a apache httpd, plus tomcat plus Empathy. Nothing out of the ordinary.

I screwed around earlier trying to configure a Xerox printer (ultimately failing). That would be the only thing that required root access during my doomed X session.

At the risk of speaking too soon, this issue hasn't resurfaced for me since upgrading to F18.

The other reporters seem to have nouveau_drv.so in common, as do I.

If it helps.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you 
would still like  to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version  of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
