I did an update of openSUSE a week or so ago. After that, my nvidia card has stopped working reliably. What happens is that: - first the windows become unresponsive, but the mouse works - then after a few seconds, the mouse stops working too - then after 10 seconds, all starts working again This happens every few minutes. Occasionally, the server never starts responding again. I see via a remote login that the X server starts using 100% CPU time when this happens. I also see messages in the X log about: [ 74.417] (WW) NVIDIA(0): WAIT (0, 6, 0x8000, 0x00006570, 0x00006570) [ 77.419] (WW) NVIDIA(0): WAIT (2, 6, 0x8000, 0x00006570, 0x000067ec) [ 78.749] [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.

But most of the time it has been about enabling 3D. I have all desktop effects disabled globally. So I do not know if there were two problems or a common underlying problem introduced. xorg-x11-7.6-151.1.i586 nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-desktop-260.19.36_2.6.31.5_0.1-22.1.i586 x11-video-nvidiaG02-260.19.36-23.1.i586 I have this in a number of systems. It is a NVIDIA NV43 [GeForce 6600]. They are all running KDE 4.5.5 from OBS. I am not sure where to start. But I see this on a number of systems. They all have pretty much the same software. They have been using the same repositories without problem. It was the update at the end of Feb that caused the problem to start.
