From time to time (several times a day), it get stuck for a few seconds, then the system resumes or hangs definitly. If it hangs, only the mouse moves, anything else stuck, with CPU heating. I have to reboot. if it resumes, apport proposes me to report the bug, for "apport-gpu-error-intel.py" and says apport has detected a possible GPU hang, but i suspect apport itself is buggy and does not its job. WHen the system resumes, from time to time there are problem with the display (see picture attached) : characters not correctly painted, or a green banner accross the screen. i have sevral crash reports in /var/crash directory like "xserver-xorg-video-intel.xxxx...crash" that i have to delete manually as apport doesnt. (I launched the "ubuntu-bug " command to create this report).
