I had the same problems that people is describing with -CURRENT and
the NVIDIA driver (reboot spontaneous after finishing a session,
and upon chainging to ttyv*).

It wasn't like that until very recently (that is, it started happening
after with kernels from maybe the last couple of weeks).

Just to try something different, I installed the "beta" NVIDIA
driver (100.14.09) (I disabled the #error directive in header file).
It works; it doesn't reboot anymore, although I cannot switch to
a text mode ttyv. My card is a GeForce Fx Go5200.
