99% of the time it would crash kswapd, more or less causing a cascade
from there. Usually one or two apps running on the desktop would oops,
then X itself. Sometimes it would prevent you from switching to a vc
(just a garbled screen) but would let you return to the x desktop fine.
Other times it took a hard reset to do anything.

positive. I've wondered about that myself several times, so I made
quite sure to check whenever possible. Unless it was doing something
VERY strange, it most definitely was loaded for all of them.
In fact, several other oopses (unrelated) while the nvdriver was loaded
weren't tainted either.
BTW: Since I stepped back to 2314 it's been nice and stable (Only 3 days
so far but better than the 10 hours I could manage with the latest
driver.)
