The bug appeared a few times while I was working on a paper inside a VirtualBox VM, not sure whether that could play a role. I could not reproduce it yet, it just occured on seemingly random occasions. Also, I did not experience another crash since I filed the bug. I will continue working the way I was and try to keep track of this.

When the bug occurs, everything freezes the moment I click on the symbol in the bottom notification bar and after a few seconds the whole screen shows nothing but random noise. The computer then has to be forced to restart via power button. Strg+Alt+F1 or similar does not have any effect. I am running Ubuntu 11.10 on a Dell Studio notebook with AMD graphics chip, however without AMD drivers. I think the bug only occured while using an external display via HDMI.
