Please boot X with the vesa driver, and see whether or not you can
replicate the issue with that. If you can, then this is not an -nv
issue, but perhaps kernel or hardware.
Also, can you run top during a chandler full build with the -nv driver
loaded and watch the CPU consumption? I'm guessing that for whatever
reason, -nv causes a higher CPU load than -nvidia, which then generates
excess heat and triggers the bios to kill the system. (I've got a
laptop that does this).
** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
