Title:
  Green lines and frozen desktop. Mouse could move.

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  I have been having freezing issues, and this latest one is way beyond
  my amateur ability to mess with. The image on the monitor suddenly
  messed up, which I believe is what is meant by screen corruption. It
  looked like what happens when the tower overheats. I'm running Ubuntu
  10.04 64 bit on a MacPro. When I'm using the Mac OS, I have SMC Fan
  Control to manually set the fan speed to keep things cool under high
  intensity graphics situations. I am not sure what could have caused
  the tower to overheat in this case.

  Due to a high number of random freezes, I updated Xorg to X11 in the
  hopes of solving the issue. Unpredictable freezes seemed to stop, but
  now the computer consistently freezes when the Update Manager pops up
  in the background. It does not cause a freeze when I open Update
  manager after restarting, or if I run updates via the terminal.

  In all instances, ctr+alt+back did not do anything (and yes, I do have
  it enabled.) REISUB also didn't work, though I was using an apple
  keyboard at the time. I had thought that right alt+F13 was the Sysreq
  key, but maybe that doesn't work.

  I don't know if this all is related to one another, but I figured I'd
  lay it all out in one report, just in case. I've probably forgotten to
  include something important you need to know. Just tell me what you
  need and where I have to look to find it, and I'll do my best. I'm
  still very new to Ubuntu.
