Bug#661253: nvidia-glx: NVIDIA 295.20 causes random and unexpected X termination and hence logout
I can confirm this bug on as late as 295.49-1 (haven't tried anything after that). Last version without this bug that i have found is 290.10-1, anything after that crashes. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#661253: nvidia-glx: NVIDIA 295.20 causes random and unexpected X termination and, hence logout
Same here with 295.33-1, system freeze after a mere 15mn. System load very low, only Amarok running on a fresh KDE session. Second try same result while screen-saver was running. Downgrading to 295.20-1 solves it. Happens with both stock Sid kernel and local 3.3, both amd64. Back to the drawing board NVidia... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

I had not checked with the forum. I am not really a forum type person don't go to them unless pushed...I'll see if I can do a search for something this weekend. Immediate reaction to the above is that I do use Chrome but not Chromium. Russel, can you confirm that the machine becomes unresponsive after this crash? Or can you just relogin and continue to work? For me X just dies and then GDM3 kicks in and shows a login screen. The machine is generally fine as far as I can tell. I upgraded this morning after a few days gap and there was a new kernel so I tried the machine again. Sadly there was a X termination fail so I have stopped using that machine until there is another kernel or NVIDIA driver update.

Bug#661253: nvidia-glx: NVIDIA 295.20 causes random and unexpected X termination and hence logout
Hi there, seeing this too on Wheezy/SID amd64, sometimes it's just a logout, sometimes it's total X freeze ending up progressively in total machine freeze if let running (no input device working, no ssh access). It happens with stock Debian kernel (Sid) or locally compiled vanilla (3.2.8). Downgrading to 290.10 solves the issue on both Sid and Wheezy. kernel and system logs doesn't show anything meaningful, Xorg.0.log doesn't contain errors that stand out, and xsession-errors is mute too. :-( . I run KDE desktop with compositing, lockup happens randomly, when session is active or on the screensaver. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

My experience is even more severe: after X dies, it causes the machine to basically hang - it ceases to respond to ssh connection requests or http connection requests, although pings still work; the keyboard becomes unresponsive, and so on. I have been forced to do a hard reboot twice in two days. Hi Russel, hi Julian, did you have a look at the nvidia forum to see whether this probelm has been reported there? http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14order=desc There is also an issue with 295.20 segfaulting in libnvidia-tls: http://bugs.debian.org/660189 - does this math your problem? Russel, can you confirm that the machine becomes unresponsive after this crash? Or can you just relogin and continue to work? Julian, can you setup a serial console or netconsole to capture the kernel messages in case of such a crash? But first ensure that you have matching versions of the kernel and the corresponding kernel headers installed (matching also all the the debian revision part) and rebuild the module (and reboot).
