Bug#661253: Same problem here

[Mark Fletcher]

I am seeing same problem here on self-built (2+ years ago) amd64
machine. Have been running fine using wheezy with nvidia driver for
ages, latest upgrade to 295.20-1 causing these random X server crashes
and hence logouts, essentially rendering the machine unusable in
graphical mode.

>From Googling around it seems the problem is pretty widespread -- it's
being reported in Archlinux, Debian and Ubuntu forums (fora?) 

Suggests the problem is upstream? Don't know.

Anyway, the pretty-much-universally recommended solution is to downgrade
to 290.10 -- which I would do except that I don't have the packages
anymore as I did an aptitude autoclean after the last upgrade... Where
can I get my hands on the old packages now? They don't seem to be in the
debian package pool any more...

Thanks

Mark
