Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
The console will randomly freeze/ lockup. I initially thought this was a
screensaver issue as I first noticed it when stepping away from the
machine for a while and coming back to a frozen screensaver display. The
screensaver was set to "random" and a search for probable causes led me
to believe that using a non-openGL screensaver might stop the problem.
However, I've also had situations where the keyboard and mouse (Synaptic
touchpad) will stop responding while actively using the machine. The
keyboard becomes completely unresponsive. I can move the cursor with the
mouse, but the machine will not respond to mouse clicks, nor will the
cursor change as expected when moving across a document with embedded
hyperlinks.
The only way to recover is to power down and reboot, or to remote login
via ssh and issue a "sudo shutdown -r now" command. I've tried to do
some investigative work via the ssh remote login console, but the
keyboard stops responding after just a few minutes and I have to sever
the connection, wait a few minutes, then open a new connection to get
another couple minutes of normal keyboard response.
This problem started immediately after upgrading to 9.10 from 9.04
(which was rock solid), but I noticed that it also seems to be prevalent
in 10.04 (per the Release Notes), so I though that this additional data
point may be useful.
