[Bug 370207] Re: Resizing KDE4 panel locks up entire system

 

Thanks for the update Bryce. I've updated the driver but continue to
experience mouse freezes.

I'm working on the assumption that I'm not to add the PPA as a
repository to my sources list, so instead I downloaded the following
four packages and issued a 'dpkg -I *'. This is on a fully patched
Jaunty on amd64.

* nvidia-180-kernel-source
* nvidia-180-libvdpau
* nvidia-180-modaliases
* nvidia-glx-180

Before beginning I completely removed the nvidia-185 driver I had been
using, essentially reverting to the standard nvidia-180 driver. Then I
did a 'dpkg -i *' which replaced the driver with the one you supplied.
After completing the install I rebooted and attempted to play Nexuiz.
The mouse locked up almost immediately after beginning a game. I
rebooted again and went back in to Nexuiz and was able to play for about
an hour without any issues, by far the best yet.

However, tonight I tried to play again and went about 15-20 minutes
before I experienced another mouse freeze. Again, this problem isn't
specific to Nexuiz -- it does seem to occur whenever the graphics card
is busy though. It will also freeze on me when running Kubuntu in
fullscreen mode in a VirtualBox VM, for instance.

I'm willing to do anything else I can to help
test/reproduce/troubleshoot the problem. Please let me know next steps.

Thanks.
