Public bug reported: Machine (Dell T1500) seems stable with stock karmic kernel. Switched to PAE kernel, installed headers so driver can recompile, came up to gdm login okay. But autologin fails instantly, dropping me back to the login screen. Logging in fails about 90% of the time -- screen flashes and I get dropped back to gdm. Once in a while it actually logs in okay, at which point it seems to be fine.
/var/log/gdm/:0.log.1 shows SIGSEGV in nvidia_drv.so. (will attach). BTW, ubuntu-bug sucks for reporting xorg problems. Can I please have the ability to open a text file and type these comments from the affected machine so I don't have to type an ugly URL into another machine to get here?
