Hi all,

I fitted a new Nvidia 6200geforce (AGP) graphics card a few days ago, and
I saw this intermittent (maybe once a week) fault for the 3rd time today.

I was running openSuse 10.3 at the time, but I have also seen the same fault 
in openSuse 10.2.

The first two times I saw it, I was using the latest release of the Nvidia
drivers, and this last time I was using the latest beta version of the
Nvidia drivers.

The machine has been fine in most other respects, and the card performs
well in 3D.  I have just occasionally had some corrupted text, which has
cleared if I force a re-draw.

The problem shown in the link requires a re-start of the x-server to cure
it.

My main hope is to find out if this is a hardware or driver problem.  I
also fitted 2 extra DDR400 memory modules at the same time, so is it
likely one of them is faulty ?

The card appears to perform well in Windows XP, but I use XP so little it
is not much of a test.  Only extensive use in XP would prove the point one
way or another.

Thanks in advance

Paul Williamson
