Bug Description

System is freezing/crashing randomly. In case of crash, user is thrown out of X (the login window appears). I suspect problems with nouveau driver because with propriety nvidia driver the system was stable (albeit slower). Also, replacing the graphics card seems to solve the problem.

Hey Andris,

Hi, have you had a chance to test if this bug is still present in natty?

If it does (and if you're the original reporter), please boot into natty
and run the command:

  apport-collect <bug-number>

which will update the bug with fresh logs and tag the bug as affecting
natty. (It is best to run this right after reproducing the problem.)
