Looks like he's using the free nv driver.

Yes.

dpkg -l| grep nvidia

Post the output from there.

Nothing new... This installation has 2 years and I've had 5 about
different video
cards (and 3 PCs) since then. Same installation.

I don't mind using the non-free driver
(You know, those drivers suck in Linux, but there aren't many choices),
But I tried it before and the card also crashes.

When it crashes, the screen goes black and the CPU usage increases
(the CPU fan goes mad :)).

If you have time, try each card separately and see if you can pinpoint
the crash to a specific configuration.

Done! I didn't get the back trace, but I isolated the crash.

The log:

The configuration:

Note that the primary video card works (I'm using it now) with both the
free and the privative drivers (using the free driver now).

Thanks,
Nelson.-
