In addition to in slideshow mode in libreoffice, I confirmed this problem when playing
high bitrate movies in fullscreen mode (any movie players).

Interestingly, a mp4 movie pasted on a slide in libreoffice that hangs the GPU doesn't
induce the same problem when it is played on a movie player. However, playing a
high bitrate (say, a DVD iso) movie on a movie player hangs.
Probably it occurs when GPU gets high load or sometime of buffer overflow (speculation).

Perhaps this is a duplicate of other bugs observed on haswell's integrated GPUs.

thanks.
