Package: nvidia-kernel-source
Version: 1.0.7167-1
Severity: important
I'm having a strange problem with Nvidia 7167 drivers. Whenever I
start up X and attempt to start up Thunderbird, this sends
the load on the machine through the roof and effectively crashes it.
The only way out is to reboot. I tried this with both kernel 2.6.8.1
and 2.6.11.3. Downgrading to the Nvidia 6629 drivers fixes the
problem.
The same problem also appears with Firefox, though it normally doesn't
crash at startup but instead crashes after a few minutes of use.
Again, this problem doesn't exist with 6629 drivers.
Thanks,
Max

RenderAccel is now the default and people don't seem to still have this
problem, so while I'm not sure when this bug was fixed, I'm fairly sure it
was fixed a long time ago. Closing the bug accordingly.
