2009-04-21 01:10:04 Bryce Harrington description I had installed nvidia 180.44 via apt when it was posted, and over the period of time since had absolutely awful issues with stability. The system would freeze multiple times a day, sometimes with the "blinking keyboard" symptom, and would require a hard power-cycle. I recently installed 185.19 (from PPA), and it has been far more stable. Has anyone else been seeing stability issues with 180.44? With Jaunty release coming up shortly, I'm concerned about this issue; we need a stable nvidia driver. My system: Thinkpad T61p 6457-7WU.

Having come across Bug 328035, I'm wondering if there isn't a problem in X, not in the driver. Running Intrepid with the very same driver (185.19, currently) is rock solid, whereas Jaunty locks up.

[edit: only seemed so ... still has the problem on Jaunty, but not on Intrepd] Has anyone else been seeing stability issues with 180.44?
