[Bug 821702] [NEW] [Oneiric] Nvidia-current 280.13 hangs up the system

 

Public bug reported:

The latest stable nvidia-current from Oneiric repos (280.13-0ubuntu1) hangs up my system.
This happens every time I start synaptic.
Then, if I try to close it, it won't close until the system asks to force quit it.
Then, however, the whole system hangs (speeding up CPU).
If I then try to shut down or reboot, I get a message saying terminal is not responding.
So somehow terminal process does not appear to shut down.

This is easy to reproduce, as it happens each time I install nvidia-
current_280.13.

The previous version 275.09.07-0ubuntu4 works just fine.
In addition to this, also the beta version 280.04 (from xorg-edgers) works OK.
However, the later beta 280.11 will also hang up my system just like 280.13 does.

I have a fully updated 64-bit Oneiric-alfa3
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P
Graphics card: XFX GTX285 1 GB
