Great, then do a git bisection to find the patch that fixes it.

The bug description:

"I recently installed newly released ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit version on
my desktop. And it is frequently freezing, for the first few hours it
ran smoothly and when I started watching videos it started freezing
randomly."

If this bug has become a hodge podge of people's unrelated issues, then
perhaps it's going to be unworkable and we should just close it as
wontfix.
