I suspect your system is actually not in a veryu healthy state, with
some completely random area of memory being used for the frame buffer
:-(
Are there any open source components to the Nvidia drivers at all? You
could try recompiling those, and auditing them for broken memory
allocations or use of virt_to_phys, but you're probably screwed without
the full source...
