David, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A78LMUSB3/HelpDesk_Download/ an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (2001). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-2001 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1464055 Title: Display freezes Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When i'm working with my ubuntu 14.04 the display repeatedly freezes itself, so I must restart my computer. this error occur randomly, I don't know if is a problem with the graphics card (I'm using nvidia Geforce GTX 650 Ti boost graphics card) or a kernel problem or something.
