I have option nvagp 0 in my config file. This didn't get changed
at all. The absolute only change when my problems started was the
upgrade to the latest NV_kern and NV_GL. If I remember, the longest it
was stable with the latest one was 2 days, and I wasn't even stressing
it with anything even close to xvideo. It would just decide to oops
when it was doing basically nothing but blinking a cursor in an xterm.
Changing back to my original 2314 rpm's, without even touching the
config file has done away with all the problems.
