I once had a PCI probe function OOPS with the nvidia module loaded. Previous
run was alright, and rebooting with exact same setup worked the next time and
never failed again for the time I was using the nvidia module on that
computer.

I can't be positive that it was the nvidia module, but the probability of it
having to do with it is quite high. It at least triggered something.
