Even I have the same problem at my end, the installation here is Fedora
9 sulphur,

$ /sbin/lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Quadro NVS 290 (rev a1)

driver installed for nvidia is nvidia-kmod-173.14.12-5.lvn9.src.rpm from
livna repository,

Uniquely it happens only when I login into KDE4 and not in gnome, and
shows all same symptoms as Rocco mentioned,

the lockup happens randomly ranging from 1/2 a minute to 5 minutes, and
the X locks up for a while after which the lock is released and then
lock can occur randomly again.

I noticed the same error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Strangely, X doesnt lock up randomly when I use gnome rather than kde4,
I tried disabling composite in xorg.conf, but X in kde4 still locks up
randomly.
