Downgrading doesn't help. I've actually spent most of the day
installing, re-installing and de-installing NVidia drivers - and tried
out pretty much everything from 295.40 to 30x (from official
repositories, PPAs, as well as the latest official NVidia driver.
Apart from some other minor issues along the way it always boils down
to the very same issue with darktable - regardless of the driver version.

I'm currently running two (similar) installations on the same machine,
one Mint Linux 13 with NVidia 295.40, and a Ubuntu 12.10 that
currently has the latest version (some 304 I think) from NVidia's web
site. They both perform exactly the same for me, i.e. they both work
when changing the ...RAW kernel accordingly, and fail equally in all
other cases.

There are still some things I have kept constant so far. I've not
moved away from Debian/Ubuntu/Mint type of installation (but would
like to keep that actually), and I've been using the same versions of
VirtualGL, acpi_call, bbswitch, and Bumblebee (all necessary for
working with the Optimus card) so far. This leaves some room for
future experiments, but for the time being I'll just stick to my
highly efficient multiply-and-divide code in blendop.cl. But don't
worry: I won't ask for this to be merged into master :-)

My previous question regarding anybody using the same hardware
(GT640M) has not yet been answered, but I would assume people are
actually using (more or less) different adapters. If this is so, I
believe it's a problem between this particular piece of cra.. aehm:
chip and the driver/opencl compiler - which hopefully gets fixed in
the near future.

At least I can continue working with dt and openCL support - which is
a major achievement at this point :-)

Thanks a lot for your help, Ulrich! And do let me know when you need a
not-so-easy testbed for some fancy opencl code.

Jens
