Ric95: There's very little to recompile - it a binary only driver. The only thing you could recompile is the glue layer which isn't really going to make much difference. Given that this bug lockups up your entire system the problem can't possibly lie with Blender so recompiling it would likely not help (the only thing you could possibly do is try and work out exactly what operation blender did which lead to a lock up and basically see if you could rewrite blender not to do it).
It might be interesting to find out whether disabling RenderAccel (as described here; http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9755/README/appendix-d.html ) helps your stability. Further because your card is relatively modern you have the option to try the nvidia-glx-new drivers. It would be good to know whether your problems still persist with those... -- [nvidia-glx] Frequent lockups when NV 3d enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94739 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
