Hi !
I have been using Linux 3.3.8 together with NVIDIA driver 304.64 for a long time without any problems.
Linux 3.3.8 is quite old and does not receive any updates anymore, therefore I decided to update my Linux kernel to a new long term release which is 3.18.10.
Before I installed the new kernel I upgraded the NVIDIA driver to 340.76 and now the trouble(s) started.
After running the system (Linux 3.3.8/NVIDIA driver 304.64) for a while, the kernel log outputs:

Well, I have been using NVIDIA graphic cards & drivers since 10 years now and in all cases a kernel update fixed such error messages but not this time.
The problem with this error is that after it occurred, the mouse cursor response is slow.
Below the error message for Linux 3.18.10 and NVIDIA driver 340.76:

Using irqpoll as kernel parameter fixes the issue but the log also says that “This may significantly impact system performance”.
Any advice how to continue would be nice.
