nVidia Xorg driver 340.76 causes lots of troubles in UEFI boot:
1. Does not load from /boot/loader.conf, only kld_load in /etc/rc.conf.
2. Hangs computer after some time of inactivity in Xorg (after xscreensaver is
launched). Probably APM related. Only hardware power-off is possible. No
problem when machine works for a long time in console mode with no Xorg
running.

New nvidia driver does not work on my GF GT9800GT which I don't really want to
replace as it has no-fan cooling.

No kernel coredump is possible.

Please fix nVidia driver in UEFI boot/kernel :-)
