Hello,
Some weeks ago I reported my problems with the nVIDIA driver. Sometimes when I booted my system, the screen got black and nothing happened. Then I had to reset the system. Here is what /var/adm/messages reported just before the manual reboot: Sep 27 15:38:42 adalind nvidia: [ID 702911 kern.notice] NOTICE: NVRM: GPU at PCI:0000:01:00: GPU-88af19ba-ec73-7f91-09dd-448d8abf45ce Sep 27 15:38:42 adalind nvidia: [ID 702911 kern.notice] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 00000080 00000000 00000005 00000005 Sep 27 15:38:46 adalind last message repeated 2 times Sep 27 15:38:46 adalind console-kit-daemon[745]: [ID 702911 daemon.warning] GLib-GObject-WARNING: g_object_set_property: construct property "seat-id" for object 'CkSession' can't be set after construction Sep 27 15:38:47 adalind gnome-session[1905]: [ID 702911 daemon.warning] WARNING: Failed to run gconf-sanity-check-2: Failed to execute child process "" (No such file or directory) Sep 27 15:38:47 adalind gnome-session[1905]: [ID 702911 daemon.warning] WARNING: IceListenForConnections returned 2 non-local listeners: inet/adalind:55155,inet6/adalind:39567 Sep 27 15:38:49 adalind nvidia: [ID 702911 kern.notice] NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 56, CMDre 00000000 00000080 00000000 00000005 00000005 Sep 27 15:38:51 adalind syslog[1923]: [ID 702911 daemon.warning] Gtk-WARNING: gtkwidget.c:5709: widget not within a GtkWindow According to https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/xid-errors/ the error message 56 is a Display Engine error. This means that it is either a hardware error or a driver error. I replaced the GeForce GT-730 by MSI with a GT-730 from Gigabyte, which I bought last year, and now the system is stable. No X server crashes and no black screens, So it was a hardware problem. I was not very fond of MSI products but now I will never buy anything else from MSI.
