[Bug 516861] Re: [Karmic][nvidia] VT switch cause segfault error 4 in nvidia_drv.so. Related to pulseaudio?

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  On VT switch sometimes the computer freezes / GFX dies. Happened 3-4 times so far during 3 months.
  Ubuntu 9.10, NVidia GeForce GTS 250, Quad Core, 64 bit.
  
  The main error message(s)
  Xorg[1662]: segfault at 8 ip 00007fa2aff0756f sp 00007fff1e5e1620 error 4 in nvidia_drv.so[7fa2afebd000+3ac000]
  3: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so(_nv001652X+0x21) [0x7fc04f421851]
  
  *** Symptoms ***
  This time upon more testing I noticed that the computer was in fact running,
  but the GFX was dead.
  alt+ctrl+f1 throw me to VT1 where I was able to login as root, but all the time the monitor was showing blank screen.
  
  But the GFX card did detect I was in text-only mode, because in this
  mode it always has fans running at maximum speed (which itself is
  probably a bug in nvidia power saving, but that is another topic).
  
  So - it's more like the GFX output died in a way that I was not able to
  restore while trying (blindly) to killall -9 X nor /etc/init.d/gdm
  restart.
  
  At some point keyboard died (caps lock not reacting) but SysRq's seem to
  fix that.
  
  I have a feeling this *may* be related to RAM being full and computer
  swapping during switching (but perhaps totally not).

  There are pulse audio errors always when this crash occurs, but they may be just related to the VT switch, not to the crash happening sometimes on VT switch, dunno.
