It's pretty much been a week and I'm pleased to inform you guys that staying on Linux kernel 3.2.0-23 won't freeze the computer. Just make sure you're not using the 'pae' kernel because that seems to be part of the problem, unless you really, really need it. It doesn't need to be the lowlatency kernel, obviously. This works with both Ubuntu and Kubuntu. One time I mistakenly kept the 'pae' and it froze my system, so this is why I will be stressing to NOT USE THE 'PAE'.
In order to do this, you need to go onto Synaptic Package Manager and completely remove any and all occurrences of the 3.2.0-25 kernel and install the 3.2.0-23 kernel, image and header. Again, NOT THE 'PAE'!! All you'd need to do is have Synaptic look for "3.2.0-25" and then "3.2.0-23" and you should be golden. Then, when you reboot, go into GRUB and make sure the kernel is correct. You may need to go into the "Previous Linux Versions" in order to find the older kernel. If this is the case, then a step was missed. I will say that I've had a lot more reliability with the low latency kernel, and will give a more detailed report about the older generic kernel. It did freeze once, but I was doing a SMART test on my hard drive at the time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993187 Title: ubuntu 12.04 completely freezes frequently.
