Well it started happening again. Basically what I did was rebuild all of  
ports which downgraded my nvidia driver. I was getting consistent crashes  
in youtube after this happened. I upgraded my nvidia driver to 260.19.44  
by modifying the port and now I can't get it to crash anymore.

*HOWEVER*

This may or may not be unrelated -- I'm running opera and have a youtube  
video hidden in another tab. I have upgraded my nvidia driver but didn't  
reboot, just removed the kernel module and started X again. For some  
reason the Youtube video in the hidden tab is able to be seen when I put  
my terminal over the area where it would be if it was in the active tab.   
http://feld.me/stuff/flash_bug.png is an example of it.

I haven't yet rebooted to see what happens on a clean boot, but this is  
certainly interesting... perhaps bad flash/linuxulator behavior that  
doesn't trip a panic in the newer nvidia drivers? Weird stuff either way...

Now that I have seemingly figured out the combination to a crash I'll see  
if I can catch one on the console and have something worthwhile to report.


Regards,



Mark
