I have the same problem with this card.

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44 [Quadro NVS 285] (rev a1)
	Subsystem: nVidia Corporation Device 029d
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
	Memory at f6000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
	Memory at f8000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
	Memory at f7000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
	[virtual] Expansion ROM at fc000000 [disabled] [size=128K]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: nvidia
	Kernel modules: nvidia, nvidiafb

The problem appeared after a recent update. It, how ever, does not
freeze the whole computer but simply the user interface. I'm not able to
do anything locally, but I can open an ssh connection to the computer.
Restarting gdm or executing chvt from the remote shell does not help.
Moving /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.foo seemed to fix the
issue after a reboot, by defaulting to another driver.
