Binary package hint: xorg
This usually happens when the system is idle for some time. I haven't yet checked to see if disabling the screen saver (which is OpenGL) helps, although I plan to try that.

I want to mention that the system, other than the video, does stay responsive when this situation occurs. I see the render error and GPU hung error in my logs and the console becomes useless because there is no longer any video after this happens, but the system itself keeps running. I generated this bug report by SSHing into the system to report the bug.
