Public bug reported:
Hey there,
I just bought a Dell desktop computer. The first thing I did was to
install Ubuntu.
I haven't had much luck so far. The system is randomly freezing after some time.
The wierd thing is I can still move the mouse over the screen but I can't click.
I'm not able to show the desktop, minimize or close any window.
The only thing I can do is hit ctrl+alt+f1 and kill GDM and restart it.
I'm so frustrated with this.
Please feel free to ask me anything you might be needing to resolve
this.
Facts:
- This happens weather or not I'm using Compiz.
- If I restart my computer and boot Windows Vista right after that incident, I
have a very similar problem under vista (being able to move the mouse, but
unable to click). Now if I shut down my computer, wait a couple of seconds, and
then boot Vista, this won't happen.
- Same problem under Jaunty KDE4, tested with a bootable usb stick.
- I've got an ext4 filesystem.
