Public bug reported:

The nvidia-185 driver present in karmic seems to like to hard lockup
randomly with these messages present in kern.log

This also (the hard lockup) happened in Jaunty with the 9600GT, but it
did not with the 9400GT.

Apparently, this is caused by PowerMizer downclocking everything, and disabling PowerMizer fixes the problem.
Any sort of driver fix upstream, or will we have to work around this problem?
