If you're gonna be a Gentoo user you will develop more of those traits over time. That's the newest driver. As per Paul's suggestion you might try an older one. Other than that post the contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf as well as your current xorg log file, most like /var/log/Xorg.0.log, but it might have a different name. As the 6150 seems to be an on-board GPU only used in specific nvidia laptop chipsets I have no idea about it's specs. As you say it's not CUDA-based I'm suspicious about mixing CUDA & non-CUDA and getting good results. You might query the nouveau driver guys to see if they support it. The 8400 is probably well supported there and likely someone will know if they support old & new NVidia chips running together. Also, if you can get it to crash and are still able to ssh in then I'd look closely at the X11 log file and see if it says anything, as well as dmesg, etc. Maybe you're up against a kernel bug or something. (You didn't tell us much about your setup...) ;-) HTH, Mark
