<br>found Hardy Heron to be unstable with the NVIDIA proprietary drivers?<br><br>When they are not installed everything is fine. Once installed I get <br>hard lockups every 12 hours or so which can only be dealt with through <br>power cycling the machine. No suspicious entries in any logs after <br>rebooting. I have reverted back to using the nv driver but was <br>wondering whether my experience was isolated.<br><br>Simon<br><br>The University of Dundee is a Scottish Registered Charity, No. SC015096.<br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>dundee GNU/Linux Users Group mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:dundee@lists.lug.org.uk" href="mailto:dundee@lists.lug.org.uk">dundee@lists.lug.org.uk</a> <a href="http://dundee.lug.org.uk" target="_blank">http://dundee.lug.org.uk</a><br><a href="https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dundee"
