More testing reveals

[James v. Z. <ja...@dv...>]

A bit more stress testing has revealed something interesting.

On my two console server with 2.6.15-vz1 and nV binaries, I tried
performing a <ctrl><alt><bkspc> stress test on the secondary display
_only_.

No crashes. At all. GDM complains about the X server restarting more
than 6 times in 90 seconds, pauses for two minutes then continues
loading X and we can do it all over again.

Doing the same test with the primary console, after quite a few kills
will eventually cause a lockup and/or X crash. I inserted a 5 second
pause using an X wrapper, but results are the same.

I am going to test again on another machine, this time trying open
source drivers as well as nV 8178 binaries.
