@up: Definitely, following comment #18 makes the screen freezes stop. So does not touching the touchpad at all. Unluckily, neither of those two options lets you use the actual touchpad features like multitouch gestures (e.g. two-finger scrolling).

Once in a while, my screen will freeze, only when I use my touchpad. This does not happen with my USB mouse. This does not happen either when I uninstall nvidia-prime and use my intel integrated graphics (HD3000). I can temporarily solve the issue by doing a VT switch. In the attached Xorg.0.log, you can see "synaptics: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad: touchpad found" each time I did a VT switch and regained control.
