Public bug reported:
Since installing Ubuntu 14.04, onto a HP Pavilion dv8 laptop, the unity
desktop is freezing a couple of times each day. Typically at first, I'm
able to move my mouse-cursor, but after a few seconds that freezes up
too.
I'm not sure what's causing this, but here's the video card it uses:
