Nvidia MX 4000 card locking up on FC5 as updated

[Charles Curley]

I bought an Nvidia MX 4000 (10de:0185 (rev c1)), and am having
problems with it.

If I remove xorg.conf and let the nvidia installer build a new one, I
can run startx and X srarts up. I get a blue screen and the mouse
works, but the keyboard does not. I can log in over SSH, and find that
the system locks up for several seconds at a time, until the system
locks up completely. At that point, a reset is necessary.

I see the same results with the livna RPM and the native installer
from Nvidia.

I see the following in /var/log/messages:

I see no errors or warnings in /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Ideas?
