I'm running Nvidia driver: 310.32 with my GeForce GTS 450 kernle-3.1.6
but I've noticed it freezes my screen once a day or ever second day.
Mouse is moving but no icon is responding, nor can I use the keyboard
(all frozen).
I can login to the system over ssh. I've tried to restart/zap "xdm"
it doesn't help.
What else can I do to restart "X"?
You can use the SysRq Key (I use <Ctrl><Alt><PrtSc>)
and then RE
You might have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key
Helmut.
I've tried key combination <Ctrl><Alt><PrtSc> doesn't work nor does
<Ctrl><Alt><Backspace>
besides when it is frozen keyboard is not responding, I can not even do:
<Ctrl><Alt><F1>
I'll try to kill next time: /usr/bin/X
as Yohan suggested, I did it on my backup computer and X just restarted.
