I have been having issues with playing videos, mostly flash and stuff like that. In worst cases this has even frozen my computer completely so an hard reboot is required.

This error here always shows it self in dmesg when this happens.

Code:

This video problems happened also when testing other distros. So this is something more then just an software error.

Thanks for the help.

Would you be using nvidia-drivers ?
If so then nvidia claims having fixed "some" issues relating to this with their 275.09.07
But I cannot really tell as, under 2.6.38-r6 + nvidia-drivers 270.41.06, I never faced this error.

has the card worked in any context, or is it just bad hardware?

also, I noticed that you have "sse5" in your USE flags - double-check that your processor really supports this.

I have fixed the use flags in accordance with what my processor supports.

I found on the nvidia forums that this is an bug in flash. It creates this error as the xorg server is actually looping and almost crashing.

You can find the threads here.

The combination of these statements sounds false to me. If the system is really frozen, then there has been a serious kernel error. Flash is a user process and cannot cause a kernel error, no matter how badly written it might be. It could trigger a bug in a kernel component such as nvidia.ko, though.

Can you reproduce the problem using one of the free nVidia drivers, either nv or nouveau?

There is no kernel error. But the keyboard stops responding and the mouse even at times. This also completely freezes kde.

I have been receiving these errors for the last few days too.
In my case, I run FluxBox.
A recent failure (about 30 minutes ago), The screen froze but the mouse kept moving.
Amarok finished playing the current song (about 2 minutes) then stopped.
I could not ALT-F1 to a console.
I could not ssh in from another computer.

I had to hard reset. Actually I forgot to try ALT-Sysreq R,E,I,S,U,B

I have an nvidia GTS-250 with 512MB, VBIOS 62.92.79.00.07 using nvidia drivers 275.09.07.
I installed this particular nvidia driver version on the 28th of July.

I read somewhere that it's caused by Flash (what else?), so I have downloaded the beta 64 bit (version 11) and I will see how that goes.

NOTE: The beta version FINALLY gets rid of that 'see the background on other tabs' issue that's been hanging around for AGES.
