Description baso 2005-12-13 06:32:12 UTC 
Sometimes the system locks, in X or also not in X and so I have to reboot the
machine. 

This is the error in the log:

Comment 1 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-13 06:39:59 UTC 
You neglected to post emerge --info output, as instructed when filing the bug.
Also, are you able to reproduce the problem with latest vanilla-sources? What
exactly "system locks" means? Not responding to keyboard input? Needs a hard
reset? Something else?

when screen locks there's no responding to mouse and keyboard input. The screen
is immobile, it seems to be a screenshot so I have to reboot
Comment 3 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-13 08:19:03 UTC 
How often does this happen? Can you reproduce it on the latest development
kernel? (currently vanilla-sources-2.6.15_rc5)
Comment 4 baso 2005-12-15 08:14:45 UTC 
It happens every time I use the system. I changed the kernel to
vanilla-sources-2.6.14.2 but nothing changed.
Comment 5 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-15 08:41:39 UTC 
Please try the latest development kernel, which is currently
vanilla-sources-2.6.15_rc5
Comment 6 baso 2005-12-16 12:08:25 UTC 
Same problem with vanilla-sources-2.6.15_rc5. I don't know how to fix it!
Comment 7 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-16 12:33:22 UTC 
Is it *exactly* the same error in that kernel? Even the same line in slab.c?
Comment 8 baso 2005-12-17 06:16:02 UTC 
No, there's no more the same error, I suppose. This could be the reason why screen continue locking.

Comment 9 Greg Kroah-Hartman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-18 08:35:39 UTC 
This is a nvidia driver issue, not a general kernel issue.

Can someone reassign the bug to the nvidia driver people, as there's nothing the kernel developers can do about this...
Comment 10 baso 2005-12-20 11:50:32 UTC 
Now it seems to happen when I use Gaim or aMule
Comment 11 baso 2005-12-23 00:43:37 UTC 
It still happens in X but also not in X.
This is my xorg.conf. I don't think there's something wrong
