From my experience, if you are using NVidia graphics cards you should probably change over to the proprietary NVidia drivers. They have fewer issues and better performance.
Here are a couple of links on how to do this. We've had people who have had success with each of these 2 different methods:

Hi,
I am running 64 bit CentOS 6.5, and have an intermittent problem where the desktop crashes with the following error
nouveau E[Xorg 6062]] failed to idle channel 0xccc0000
The only route I have out of it is to power down then restart. It is intermittent, where some days it does not happen, to 2-3 times per day. Have others had this experience and is there a solution?
Thanks in advance for any help
Best wishes Jan _________________________
