Hi all. I am using Xubuntu 12.04 precise on my Dell Inspiron N5110. Core i7 Sandy Bridge Mobile, Optimus (NVIDIA) laptop.
Using *any* official kernel, the computer will lock up entirely at random, with no access to other consoles. A few sources have pointed the finger of blame on the Intel graphics driver. Some people have found relief with kernel arguments or by installing the Liquorix kernel. Before I go to the trouble of building and installing another kernel, does anyone know of a foolproof fix for this? PS. Everything, and I mean ALL hardware is working PERFECTLY otherwise, which is a first for new laptops and any Linux distro (since I used Slackintosh 12.1 on my 2001 iBook). I know this is probably not the right forum to ask this, and I know this is a documented bug in 12.04, but I have exhausted all other avenues. Any advice would be gratefully received. Many thanks.
