I have random crashes of my ubuntu (9.10 ) system (also with the previous release 9.04) from /var/log/syslog: Nov 3 17:09:29 ptvb-desktop kernel: [ 7933.363641] npviewer.bin[3858]: segfault at f4cb1030 ip 00000000f70a5ded sp 00000000ffe4ae94 error 4 in libpthread-2.10.1.so[f709e000+15000]
In the previous crash today, a similar message appeared but caused by 'nautilus' instead of 'npviewer.bin' because the crashes restart my x-server each time, the bug might be related to the proprietary nvidia driver. I use the most recent nvidia driver 185.18.36 (during the previous crashes I used the driver I installed myself by downloading from the nvidia website; during the latest crash I was using the driver provided by the ubuntu repository, installed by the restricted driver manager) end of /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old: Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/X(xorg_backtrace+0x26) [0x4f00c6] 1: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x41) [0x4852c1] 2: /lib/libc.so.6 [0x7febcfcb1530] 3: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so(_nv001646X+0x26) [0x7febccef8856] 4: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so(_nv001415X+0x64) [0x7febccf0ce04] 5: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so [0x7febcd19a904] 6: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so [0x7febcd1b074d] 7: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so [0x7febcd1b391e] 8: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so [0x7febcd1b3e9c] 9: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so [0x7febcd1b443f] 10: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so [0x7febcd177358] 11: /usr/bin/X [0x535205] 12: /usr/bin/X [0x4ffb96] 13: /usr/bin/X(BlockHandler+0x50) [0x452200] 14: /usr/bin/X(WaitForSomething+0x141) [0x4edbf1] 15: /usr/bin/X(Dispatch+0xb2) [0x44de92] 16: /usr/bin/X(main+0x3b5) [0x434085] 17: /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xfd) [0x7febcfc9cabd] 18: /usr/bin/X [0x433509] Saw signal 11.
