   Hi all.   
      
   I have a problem that just keeps randomly happening and I just don't    
   know what to do.   
   I have a desktop with Ubuntu Dapper installed which has a nVidia Riva    
   TNT 2 32 MB in it.   
   I have installed the nVidia drivers for legacy graphics and it works    
   well. Resolution and refresh rates are the ones I want. The problem is    
   that it keeps on randomly freezing. And I mean randomly in the way that    
   it isn't while running this or that application. I may be using Nautilus    
   and it just freezes. The image is just there, no mouse, no nothing, even    
   no screensaver. It can stay that way for hours, until I ssh into the    
   desktop and do a "ps -A | grep Xorg" and "sudo kill whicheverprocessnumber".   
   Can you guys help me? Do you need more information?   
   Thank you all in advance.   
      
   Best regards, Polecat
