> Often after restarting X I see the messages similar to "NV0: still have vm que at nv_close(): 0x4023b000 to 0x40245000" in the logs. I presume that these are being caused by the properitry nvidia drivers that I use with X. However I have also noticed that "Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 6b336b50" and the like have also been turning up. I'm wondering whether the graphics drivers problems could be being caused by a vm problem. The oops that

Talk to Nvidia. Its their obfuscated/binary driver set, nobody else can help
you fix it.
