Upgrading to 3.7 highly recommended, if just to get the recent pile of
gpu reset fixes - those should increase the chances that the reset
works and your system survives. Also worth testing is upgrading
userspace gfx driver components to the latest versions (mesa +
xf86-video-intel). If you still have gpu hangs with all that, please
file a bug report against DRM -> DRI/Intel and please attach the
i915_error_state from debugfs after your gpu hung).

Yours, Daniel
