[pkg-nvidia-devel] Bug#432182: Additional information

[Lapse of Reason]

Package: nvidia-kernel-source
Version: 169.09-1

I think I'm experiencing the same problem. However, the system doesn't
completely freeze, just X is frozen. Surprisingly I can still move my
mouse around, but the screen doesn't react in any way, not even if I
click on something.

One thing I'm still able to do is shut the system down _cleanly_ by
pressing the power button (when it was previously configured in the
Gnome Power Manager). It also reacts to sysrq sequences, so I can sync
the discs, umount partitions, etc.

I've been having this problem for quite a while, I've tested various
versions of the 100.14.* branch and I've tried with 169.07 and 169.09,
the problem is always the same.

BTW, I'm running compiz 0.6.3, but I'm not sure if that is related to
the problem.
