I've got the same graphics card, and am getting GPU lockups whenever 3D is involved (Unity desktop). Screen glitches while logging in for once. Internal error reports on launching Software Centre or Printers settings menu. Bringing up the Dash breaks it to the point where I have to re- login. Launching LibreOffice causes graphics distortion, windows go blank, including other open apps, global menu disappearing and so forth. This is in 12.10 64-bit Ubuntu. Never had a chance to test it in 12.04 as Nvidia proprietary driver was offered by default.
On a side note, I can see that Xorg is not properly configured, as it tries to load nvidia module first, then nv module, and finally falls back to nouveau module as the other two are not available. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1019340 Title: GPU Lockup.
