[MyTh]

Nothing in particular...i was using firefox, had open thunderbird, amule, pidgin....

I was opening a flashsite...(www.tim.it, italian mobile phone provider), and when i clicked on the field to enter the username, gdm restarted...

Here some lines from log...

It actually looks like a crash with the nvidia driver:
