Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-glx-185

1. install any amd64 ubuntu-based distro 9.10/10.04.
2. install nvidia drivers via apt/jockey/envyng/nvidia.com's installer/s (all have the same outcome).
3. reboot or startx, soon after system crashes completely.

Tried every how-to I could find the past 3 days. Xorg.conf settings till
I turned blue in my face. Lots of kernels and some different drivers
from 173 to 195. Same hardware running i386 kernels works 100%. Not easy
for me to debug so if there's some tips of how I can retrieve info
please! At the moment I use another computer to ssh into this one with
the problem so that I can get feedback via pts just before the system
halts.
