I confirm that I have had the same problem since I upgraded to Ubuntu
Precise. The freezes I experience are completely random, sudden, and
there is nothing I can do. I tried upgrading to 3.4.0 and I still
experienced freezes. I tried downgrading to 3.0.0 and I still experience
freezes. I have just now downgraded Xorg to 1.10.4 to see if this solves
anything. When the machine freezes, somewhat more often than once a day,
nothing works, keyboard does not respond, mouse doesn't move, SysRq does
not work, and I cannot ssh to the machine. Even the fan kind of goes
down (maybe because nothing is happening), but I can usually see the
screen at the time of the freezing (even if the powersaving was active).
No logs whatsoever get generated. If I didn't stumble into this post, I
would have guessed something must have broken on my new laptop right at
the same time I upgraded to Ubuntu Precise. I have a Dell Vostro V131
with shared graphic card using the i915 driver. Unfortunately, I have no
clue how to help debugging this annoying bug. In ten years I have used
Linux, this is the worst I have ever experienced. I am testing now if
the Xorg downgrading brings any luck.
