Relavent snippet from Xorg.log file

Hi.

Lately my screen and keyboard hangs quite frequently - several times a day. Sometimes mouse freezes too, but for example music keeps playing. I believe it is related to nvidia driver package from rpmfusion since I see references to /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so in attached file. I use Geforce 6200 LE graphics card.

Don't know what to add. I'm happy to answer to any additional questions.

I bought myself a new videocard (nvidia geforce gt 520) and there has not been any lockups for a couple of days. Maybe it was a graphics card "thing"?

Anyway. I still have my old 6200 LE for a while, I can do some tests with it if you guys want, but I won't be using it daily any more.

You might try some mainboard bios update if available for your board.
I also sometime feel like enabling msi interrupt as nvidia kernel module options helps.

Unless you are using gnome3 you could have tried the 173xx serie (there is still a known issue with this serie).

At this stepn the report you have attached is valid and doesn't exhibit a packaging issue, so you could have it forwarded to nvidia.
I'm closing it as I cannot reproduce this.
