Hi there, Suffered this bug too for MONTHS now.
I found something that allowed to me to avoid a DAILY crash + hard reboot as described before here. First, I upgraded my X.org to: $ X -version X.Org X Server 1.13.1.901 (1.13.2 RC 1) Release Date: 2013-01-03 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.24-32-xen x86_64 Ubuntu Current Operating System: Linux deiphobe 3.7.0-7-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP Sat Dec 15 16:34:25 UTC 2012 x86_64 Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.7.0-7-generic root=/dev/mapper/deiphobe-root ro quiet splash Build Date: 04 January 2013 11:17:34AM xorg-server 2:1.13.1.901+git20130104+server-1.13-branch.3a8c618a-0ubuntu0ricotz~quantal (For technical support please see http://www.ubuntu.com/support) Current version of pixman: 0.28.2 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version. TO have this I subscribed to the "xorg-edgers-ppa-quantal" ppa: $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xorg-edgers-ppa-quantal.list deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu quantal main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu quantal main I also installed FROM this repository version 313 : $ dpkg -l | grep nvidia ii libkwinnvidiahack4 4:4.9.4-0ubuntu0.2 amd64 library used by nvidia cards for the KDE window manager ii nvidia-313 313.18-0ubuntu1~xedgers~quantal2 amd64 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver, kernel module and VDPAU library ii nvidia-settings-313 313.18-0ubuntu1~xedgers~quantal1 amd64 Tool for configuring the NVIDIA graphics driver (I was using the .sh stuff downloaded directly from nvidia.com, including betas and such.....). I also had updates of the flash stuf in my firefox and. TADAAA just ONE crash in 2 weeks now... Pfewwww I read somewhere our bug could be related to VDPAU in older X.org :-/ (unsure...) But now, no more blue man problem in youtube videos thanks to this, and without any mms.cfg hack: $ cat /etc/adobe/mms.cfg #EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1 #OverrideGPUValidation=true (all commented).... I suggest people with this same problem do the same thing as me and test... AND the one crash I had "just" killed my X and then restarted it... Like I did to have my problem solved before (ssh to the crashed 100% cpu X.org on my station, kill -9 X, etc....) hope this helps! !
