The NV forums have a thread on this - http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=98852, and new nvidia drivers - 169.07 may actually fix this issue.
I have also found out that the hang of the machine (to the extent that RSEIUB is not responsive) occurs if the video window display is purple - I am going to try installing the new drivers using the nvidia installer, and see what happens. -- Intermittent Video Playback Issue in Gutsy with NVIDIA restricted driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162343 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
