Hi to all, i use ubuntu hardy with latest nvidia stable driver and a geforce 6600gt.
Sometimes the system completely freeze and i must to make an hard reset:

my xorg.o.log.old after reboot:

(II) NVIDIA(0): Initialized GPU GART.
(II) NVIDIA(0): Initialized GPU GART.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Error recovery failed.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
(II) NVIDIA(0): Initialized GPU GART.
(WW) NVIDIA(0): The NVIDIA X driver has encountered too many errors. Falling
(WW) NVIDIA(0): back to write-back cached memory.
(II) NVIDIA(0): Initialized GPU GART.

It happens with a integrated geforce 7050 too.

Thanks Mattia

I had a similar experience a few days back. My Xorg.log errors are very similar to yours:

In addition, I obtained the following in dmesg:

The crash happened when I was browsing a website (www.rediff.com) in opera. The website has lots of pop-ups and opera blocks the pop-ups but slides in a notification about the pop-up left bottom corner of the desktop. At one of those notification slide-ins, the display started to flicker and after a couple of seconds the X server restarted.
