Does anyone have suggestions about this highly reproducible problem?

Xorg.log is filling up with

(EE) Jan 05 21:51:10 NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate NVIDIA TV Event Handler
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***
(EE) Jan 05 21:51:10 NVIDIA(0): Error recovery failed.
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***

at a rate of between 140 and 170 per second for about 3 minutes (20,000
times) then something like

(WW) Jan 04 15:26:30 NVIDIA(0): WAIT (0, 6, 0x8000, 0x0000ac1c, 0x0000ac1c)
(WW) Jan 04 15:26:33 NVIDIA(0): WAIT (0, 7, 0x8000, 0x0000bd08, 0x0000bd08)
(WW) Jan 04 15:26:36 NVIDIA(0): WAIT (0, 6, 0x8000, 0x0000d610, 0x0000d610)

every 3 seconds until gdm is terminated.

This can be reproduced easily by enabling the screensaver. The TV event message
is output when it goes to suspend and it switches to the WAIT message after
powering off the displays (twinview is on).

NVIDIA Driver Version 260.19.29

Here are some excerpts from the beginning of xorg.log.

Other than this annoyance, this GPU is working beautifully. I'd post this on
an Nvidia forum but I doubt anyone there can help. This is an ASUS branded
GPU on a Supermicro motherboard. I doubt ASUS support would be of much
help either :-).

Thanks -- Frank
