I use synaptic, which wants to remove far too many packages if I remove nouveau
so I didn't insist.

The machine is a Dell 6-Core Precision WorkStation T7500, Intel Xeon E5645, with 
Bios dated 2013. The internal temperatures are: cpu: 39.0 C mobo: 26.0 C. The 
RAM total is 47.04 GiByte. I use Xfce 4.16.0.

Ran perfectly for 2 years with opensuse 42.3, a Quadro 4000 card and the nvidia 
384.69 driver.  Rock solid.  Quadro 4000 temperature typically 85C.

Here is a short summary of my notes following my attempts to find a working 
setup on this workstation

     Driver: nouveau
     ---------------

Card Quadro 4000, GF100GL.  Freezes after 11 minutes with monitors lit. 
Firmware issue: failed to load nvc0_fuc084.  After freeze, journalctl shows

  fifo: INTR 0100 0000: 0...05   many repetitions
  fifo: INTR 0080 0000           once

Card NVS 310.  Freezes after 6 minutes with monitors lit. Card temperature 46C.

Card Quadro P400, GP107GL. Left monitor spontaneously rotates after 30 min. 
Other random reconfigurations.  Firmware issue: gp107/nvdec/scrubber and 
acr/DL.bin not loaded. Message: Failed to create kernel channel -22. Card 
temperature 45C.

     Nvidia drivers
     --------------

Card Quadro 4000, GF100GL. 390.144.  Freezes with blank monitors after 15 
minutes. Card temperature 85C.

Card NVS 310. 390.144.  Freezes with monitors lit after 15 mins - 3 hours.

Card Quadro P400, GP107GL. 460.91.  Card temperature 46C.  Freezes with blank 
monitors before 30 mins.

     Current situation
     -----------------

I wondered if a common feature of all the freezing was the automatic screen 
saver failing, so I installed xscreensaver and configured it to start saving my 
screen after 10 mins inactivity with the Quadro P400 card + 490.91 driver. 
This has so far held up for 22 hours.  If it holds up for a week, I will report 
it as a candidate workaround.  If it doesn't, I will still be looking for a 
solution.
