Hello,

[ Please CC me as I'm not subscribed to this list ]

Two months ago or so I bought a GeForce 6600GT video card.
I reconfigured XFree86 to use it but it always hangs when using this
card: after some activity (such as opening a web browser and
navigating for few minutes), X locks up.  I can only move the mouse
but nothing else; the only thing I can do is ssh to the box and reboot it.

I switched to X.Org (from the CVS tree), which fixed this issue but
introduced several other problems.  The most annoying one is the lack
of integration with the base system.  And as it doesn't bring me any
real advantages (aside from not hanging), I decided to look for the
problem and fix XFree86.

Fortunately, it was easy to locate the change in X.Org's CVS tree that
solved this issue.  I applied it to our xsrc tree, rebuilt the nv driver an=
d
all is fine now.

I've attached the patch.  Is it OK to commit it to our tree?  (Providing
pointers to the original patch, of course.)  I don't know what policy we
have as regards changes to X's code.

Thanks,
