I just installed today's new 304.30 nvidia driver to see if this bug is fixed but it aborted within 10 minutes:
[ 613.297325] Xorg[1563]: segfault at b4e2f000 ip b47e6960 sp bfb15cc0 error 7 in nvidia_drv.so[b4701000+6b5000] Tried with kernel 3.5.0-8. This 304.30 version also exhibits a new awful bug that all apps/games which use SDL graphics turn your entire desktop blue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973096 Title: Nvidia driver causes xorg crash To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/973096/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
