Xorg - nv - 8600GT blank screen problem.

[Ramasubramanian Ramesh <rramesh@ti.com>]

I am having issues with my new video card MSI 8600GT. Xorg fires up 
properly and everything is fine as long as I am within X. The moment
I try to switch one of the VCs (c-a-f1/2 etc) or exit X,  all I get is 
blank screen and no response from KB/mouse etc. Soon the monitor goes 
into power save. The only way to fix is reboot. Occasionally, I will see 
blank screen with X running having very similar syptoms.

I have noticed that Xorg runs with almost 100% cpu utilization whenever 
blank screen event happens. Also, with my prior card I did not have this 
problem (prior card was EVGA nvidia 7600GS)

I run stock etch kenel from amd64 distribution latest xorg with nv 
driver. Here is exact info
