So, I am not 100% sure if I encouter hardware failures or software
failures here. But I need to solve wether this is a GNOME bug to exclude
or include the hardware failure.

The following is the log output of a session with SSDM where I
succesfully log into "GNOME with Xorg" and launch the GNOME-Terminal
after I logged into GNOME.

The visual side of the log can be described like this: I can see how
the terminal application opens, but just a milisecond after it's ready I
see the window decoration disappearing, content of the application
stays, GNOME session crashes, on a dark scree I see for a moment:

vmunix: [  226.579414] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: DRM: 0xD4A7: Parsing digital output script table

and I get thrown back to the log in screen of SDDM.

Occasionally gnome-terminal or some other gnome part would crash my
gnome session when I still used SLIM.

This is on commit 883aab6462c49d4f4846a6f22168325e70227663
but has been happening for a very long time before this commit.

I use the Gnome terminal all the time and I can't confirm your
experience

CAVEATS:

1) I don't know whether I'm using SSDM or SLIM. I just took the basic
desktop conf file when I installed

2) this is my video card
