Comment 89 for bug 615549

Martin, Seth: Thanks for the confirmation. FWIW, I've narrowed my newfound nasty crashes down to the Chrome browser, with nVidia drivers installed, but only when on battery power! If I disable nVidia drivers, or simply keep AC power connected to my laptop, everything is fine; but with battery power and nVidia, Chrome crashes hard almost instantly, every time--including a fresh install of Lucid/10.04 64-bit. Nothing else seems to cause a crash. As long as I stick with Firefox when on battery power, I've never seen a crash while working (with plenty of other apps, for extended periods). Ah well, haven't found a report yet, but will open a bug soon if I have to.
