Public bug reported: After upgrading from 10.10 to 11.10 (via live USB on December 6th 2011) the cursor (both usb mouse and touchpad) and keyboard freezes after a minute or two. Nothing but a forced shut down gets me out of the freeze. After logging in using Unity 2d (instead of the default Unity 3d) these freezes does not appear no longer. I have a performance laptop (MSI-GX701) so it should be able to handle Unity 3d without any efforts. In the ubuntu forums I've gathered that the root could be in the graphics drivers (nvidia 9600) and/or compiz and/or xserver. /Karl
