No single freeze since four days, although the nvidia kernel module is loaded.
All I did is replace the "nvidia" string from the xorg.conf file with "nv".
It seems the nvidia driver is causing this random stops - the USB path
can be discarded.
This means both nvidia-glx versions are causing my PC to halt.
_Debian non-free repository:_
nvidia-glx version 195.36.31-6
_Backports non-free repository:_
nvidia-glx version 280.13.really.275.36-1~bpo60+2
Okay what's next? How can I provide more information / enable
debugging for this module?
Thanks in advance
Matthias
