Bug Description
I am having Lucid Lynx lock up on me after a period of normal use. It appears to be running out of memory (by my untrained eye looking at the dmesg) but I am /surely/ not running enough applications to consume my 3GiB of memory. I am running compiz with the proprietary nvidia driver.
*The problem appears similar to bug 865981* but I am using the proprietary driver so it cannot be GEM related.
Attached is everything I could find related to this.

This is definitely reproducible after a period of time, so I can gather more information if necessary.

Hi Anthony,
If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text. Please let us know your results.
Thanks in advance.
