I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (64-bit) on the following hardware: Dell Vostro 5460 8 GB Memory Processor -- Intel® Core™ i5-3230M CPU @ 2.60GHz × 4 Graphics Card -- GeForce GT 630M/PCIe/SSE2 with 2 GB dedicated video memory 500 GB Seagate hard drive
I have also been experiencing the 'freeze' at random intervals. I can confirm that by avoiding the use of the touchpad, I haven't had my system freeze. I am using a wireless USB mouse instead. Not perfect but it gets the job done while waiting for a fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-prime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1220426 Title: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-319” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-331” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-343” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm using an Optimus laptop (Asus N43SL) nvidia-prime is installed, so my nvidia dedicated graphics card (GT 540m) is in use. Once in a while, my screen will freeze, only when I use my touchpad. This does not happen with my USB mouse. This does not happen either when I uninstall nvidia-prime and use my intel integrated graphics (HD3000). I can temporarily solve the issue by doing a VT switch. In the attached Xorg.0.log, you can see "synaptics: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad: touchpad found" each time I did a VT switch and regained control.
