Please remove the binary only nvidia and sklin module(s) you have on
the system so that the kernel isn't tainted any more, and then see if
you can reproduce this problem.  You'll need to not only remove the
module, but then reboot to make sure it comes up cleanly without any
corruption.  We can't help debug your issues if you're using binary
only modules.  Sorry.

John
