Comment 44 for bug 982710

Now again, seems to happen from time to time; the driver 295.49 is again very unstable on my GeForce 7600 GS, and it completely freeze my machine again now, AARGH. This driver is not usable, it can be stable for a long time then just freeze the whole desktop. There is nothing to do than hard reset the PC. Using the driver with xubuntu now, thinking of removing it and falling down to default Nouveau driver. The pitfall there is that the video/movie quality in videoplayers, flash etc. is much more poor. But it's better than whole desktop freeze. ):
