After upgrade nvidia-drivers to 331.20 loading certain websites in chromium causes X to segfault. There is no problem with other web browsers.
Example of non-working site: allegro.pl

/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old
Code:

You might try downgrading nvidia-drivers. Seems all the latest drivers have had serious problems at least on my machines. I have several machines running different video cards 460TI's to 560TI's and none of the latest drivers have worked well. I get anything from games that won't start or start with a black screen to browser and system crashes and when the screen-saver becomes active it won't deactivate without killing X and restarting it.

I have masked in /etc/portage/package.mask
Code:
>=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-319.60

Which leaves me with version 319.49 and it works very well on all my machines.

Check the forms for nvidia and games and check the bug reports for the nvidia-drivers. You may get some more information.

Good Luck

Downgrading nvidia-drivers (to 319.76) had no effect itself. Problem disappeared after upgrading xorg-server to 1.15. In the meantime nvidia-drivers-331.20 was masked in profile and I am still using 319.76.
