I am seeing this with every 3.18.x kernel that has been released, including 3.18.7-200.fc21.x86_64, to which I just upgraded today. Downgrading to kernel-3.17.8-300.fc21.x86_64 makes the problem go away. For me, sometimes the display will spontaneously hang when I can't tell the cause, but the most reliable method I've found to hang it is to run xsane and click on the mode (Color / Halftone / Gray / Lineart) selector in the main window, which causes the hang immediately.

In the middle of Fedora 20 my second monitor suddenly stopped working after a kernel upgrade, and that didn't get fixed until Fedora 21 was released. The lack of adequate QA is disappointing.
Oh, BTW, as far as I can tell, the whole computer isn't hung -- you can still log in with SSH and everything -- it's just the X display that's hung, and there's no way to unhang it. Even kill -9'ing gdm and Xorg does nothing.
The only work around is to install the proprietary nvidia drivers and blacklist the nouveau driver, one thing is for sure as from kernel 3.18 nouveau driver is broken.
I have the same problem too! :( My kernel version is Linux 3.18.7-200.fc21.i686 and xorg-x11-drv-nouveau version is 1.0.11 In my case, it happens when I open a document with writer and select the text of a complete page and then the environment freezes (but I can move the cursor, only that) so I have to reboot the system.
I've had the same issue -- I had reported this as Bug 1203711
Probably duplicate of bug #1203023 Someone needs to go through all these similar bugs and consolidate them.
Problem appears to be gone with kernel 4.0.0 in Fedora 22 beta.
This is still an issue with 3.19.4 on Fedora 21
This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. 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. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 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 this bug is closed as described in the policy above. 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 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 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. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
