I'm having exactly the same issue, in a HP ProBook 6460b laptop, with Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics.
Here is my xorg log where is the error: [ 6447.678] (II) AIGLX: Resuming AIGLX clients after VT switch [ 6447.678] (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1600x900 on crtc 3 (pipe 0) [ 6447.692] (II) intel(0): EDID vendor "LGD", prod id 596 [ 6447.692] (II) intel(0): Printing DDC gathered Modelines: [ 6447.692] (II) intel(0): Modeline "1600x900"x0.0 107.80 1600 1648 1680 1920 900 903 908 936 +hsync -vsync (56.1 kHz eP) [ 6447.916] (--) synaptics: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: touchpad found [ 6449.981] (II) config/udev: Adding input device DELL Laser Mouse (/dev/input/event4) [ 6449.981] (**) DELL Laser Mouse: Applying InputClass "evdev pointer catchall" [ 6449.981] (II) Using input driver 'evdev' for 'DELL Laser Mouse' [ 6449.981] (**) DELL Laser Mouse: always reports core events [ 6449.981] (**) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Device: "/dev/input/event4" [ 6449.981] (--) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Vendor 0x461 Product 0x4d51 [ 6449.982] (--) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Found 9 mouse buttons [ 6449.982] (--) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Found scroll wheel(s) [ 6449.982] (--) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Found relative axes [ 6449.982] (--) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Found x and y relative axes [ 6449.982] (II) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Configuring as mouse [ 6449.982] (II) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: Adding scrollwheel support [ 6449.982] (**) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 [ 6449.982] (**) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout: 200 [ 6449.982] (**) Option "config_info" "udev:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5/1-1.5:1.0/input/input17/event4" [ 6449.982] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "DELL Laser Mouse" (type: MOUSE, id 9) [ 6449.982] (II) evdev: DELL Laser Mouse: initialized for relative axes.

Keyboard is unresponsive, and unable to Ctrl+Alt+F5 etc. This happens with any Desktop environment (GNOME, Cinnamon, KDE). Using NVidia GT240 with NVidia binary blob. This appears to be no pattern to when this happens - can be using any application. Happens several times per day. With Nouveau my system usually freezes within a couple of minutes of logging in.
