I have ASUS P5N-E SLI NVIDIA motherboard, Intel Core 2 Duo CPU and MSI
nVidia NX7600GT videocard.
When I use nvidia driver, the X Window freeze and I can only to reset my
PC box.
I search for solution and find here advices, but not the solution:
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=58498
I did the following from there:
boot the system with pci=nommconf idle=poll maxcpus=1 kernel parameters
I edit the grub/menu.lst like:
# kopt=root=/dev/md2 ro pci=nommconf idle=poll maxcpus=1
Is it OK?
I don't know how to make certain that these parameters are set up indeed?
I edit xorg.conf like in the Section "Device":
Option "NvAGP" "0"
to see if this eliminates the instability, but did not.
So, my system crash frequently. I hope so that I can somehow to solve
this problem.
