For quiet some time, I have weird X freezes.
By X freezes I mean that when I launch Konqueror (to show me its default page), K3B 1.0 or the Control Center,
My X freezes completely, except that I can still move the mouse but no keyboard or clicks...
It continued to happen when I switched back to safe CFLAGs (no -ftree-vectorize for now)
I am using xorg-server 1.1.1-r4 (X.org 7.1) with NVidia legacy drivers (my video-card is too old for the not legacy one)

I have done some research with gdb, and found out that all KDE related apps are stuck in select()
While my X is usually doing something inside the NVidia code (I hate obfuscations..)
Any ideas???

Btw, upgrading to X.org 7.2 is not an option for me (problems with the legacy driver or smth...)

it appears that the NVidia legacy driver is the one to blame...
anyway, the nv driver is cool (and works)
