Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nvidia-glx
OS: Ubuntu 6.06LTS up to date with the current repositories
Kernel: 2.6.15-28-686 (SMP)
Computer: Fujitsu-Siemens R540 with Dual core Xeon processor
Video adapter: Nvidia Quadro NVS 440
This video adapter is only supported by the vesa driver (single screen) and the
proprietary nvidia driver (all 4 screens).
When using the nvidia-glx 1.0.8776 package of 6.06LTS the GUI locks up after
some random time. Ssh connections to the
PC still work, but restarting X sometimes makes the PC lock up completely.
The GUI lock up becomes more probable after having a OpenGL screen saver active
for some times.
The var/log/kern.log contains following lines just before the lockup:

This lockup does not occur when using the UP 386 kernel
(linux-image-2.6.15-28-386),but then, of course, only one
of both CPU cores is used, wasting 50% of the CPU power.
Installing the latest version (100.14.12 )of the nvidia driver from the nvidia
website by means of 'envy' also solves the problem.
Since 6.06LTS is supposed to be supported till 2009 I would urge you to include
the latest nvidia proprietary driver in the
next update of 6.06LTS.
We are planning to install this version (for its longer support period) on
several PCs for our main customer. It would save us
quite some time when we would not have to install the latest nvidia driver each
time manually.
See also Bug #121096, which asks for the same update for Feisty.
