nouveau driver freeze -- can anyone else reproduce this?

Hi,
the reason why I ask again, if really the nouveau driver is active, when using Geeqie, is a look into  /var/log/Xorg.0.log,
where in my case (hybrid grafics intel/nvidia) I don't find the nouveau driver, which would explain, why I don't have
the error described in this thread.

see part of  /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
   148.883]    Module class: X.Org Video Driver
[   148.883]    ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 19.0

[   148.884] (II) intel: Driver for Intel(R) Iris(TM) Pro Graphics: 5200, 6200, P6300

Therefore my question in case of Matthews Lenovo, is it really the nouveau driver or another video driver, 
which causes the Geeqie error?
Kind Regards

odd.

Yeah. I did get what seemed like the same behavior with a context menu
in
Gimp *once*, but can't reproduce there. However, geeqie seems to
very reliably
trigger it. And it seems to be only _that_ right-click
menu, in the filelist,
not others in the app. I guess I can go around
right-clicking in other programs
to see if it happens.

One thing that occurs to me is that the placement of this
menu means
that when it comes up, it almost always comes up on top of a
scrollbar
and into another panel. *Maybe* that interaction causes some
rendering
need which triggers the bug? Seems like a longshot, and I really
don't
know what I'm talking about here. :)
