Bug Description
Every few hours the desktop freezes. I can still login via ssh, htop shows one process running at 100%. The process is shown in red, indicating a kernel thread. No response to ctrl-alt-f1 or to service lightdm restart.
Graphics card is NVIDIA NVS 310.
I've tried the NVIDIA drivers in various versions up to nvidia-current, and also nouveau (current bug report is with logfiles etc generated after a crash while running nouveau).
Xorg.log shows a seg fault:
