Just to be clear, this bug has nothing to do with hardware drivers
(nvidia-current, nouveau, fglrx, etc), or even the Ubuntu distribution
itself. This bug has been around for years across different X and kernel
versions in different distributions (e.g. Redhat etc).
The only effective workaround I
Since this bug occurs across multiple distributions AND across multiple
graphics hardware AND across multiple drivers, it is clearly a generic
Xorg/kernel issue, so I have logged a bug with upstream (Xorg -
freedesktop) team - URL is here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38029

I switched to the proprietary nvidia driver on May 4 (3 weeks ago), and
haven't had a freeze since. That's all I changed. It's been heaven.

Same as funicorn. 1-3 time a day, X seems to randomly freeze. The
mouse still moves but the screen stays frozen. I'm on a Thinkpad W510
(Intel i7 and Nvidia Quatro card). I was experiencing this on 10.10,
and it's still with me after a 11.04 upgrade. Here's the relevant
portion of Xorg.0.log:
Sadly it's 11.04 now. I still suffered from this bug. I am working on Ubuntu

I am sorry but downgrading to gdm 2.30.0-0ubuntu5 didn't resolve the problem.
The error is still present.
My case most likely is following :
1. the bug occurs - [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an
infinite loop.
2. overheating of nVidia Corporation G86 [GeForce 8600M GS]
I am running gdm 2.30.0-0ubuntu5 and the crashes still occur 2-3 times a

I upgraded to 10.10 yesterday, so far no problem, but it's too soon to
say if it was resolved upstream, since this a intermediate issue, but I
have my fingers crossed. It is a good omen that no one has posted the
problem on 10.10, since as we all know most users simply forget about
the bug report

I am facing a similar problem. I bought an ASUS 20 monitor a few days
back and this problem started creeping in on my system. before this, it
wasn't an issue. It happens 4-5 times in an hour for me though. I just
can't get any work done on my laptop :(. The only way out is I have to

This probably isn't going to be fixed any time soon by Ubuntu in 10.04,
because so little people report this bug, compared to other bugs. The best
thing to hope for is that the xorg server team solved the issue for the
repackaging of 10.10, that can be downloaded now.

I have the same problem with fresh installation of Lucid and in my case it is
caused probably by the DRI.
I have ATI Radeon X1950Pro AGP card and I'm using 'radeon' open source driver.
When I turn off DRI in xorg.conf, everything is fine, but video playback is
extremely slow, because I cant use
Can anyone confirm if this bug is resolved Ubuntu 10.10?

My symptoms match Barney's exactly: slow mouse, usually happens after
suspend, CPU pegged. Alt-SysRq works to reboot, so it's definitely just
the X server getting stuck. It's not a hard kernel crash.

Here's a backtrace?

found both entries in the log files (NMI issue and EQ overflowing)
within the last 5 minutes. That somehow relates.
