Bug Description

My screen completely freezes in a variety of situations. It happens most often when I open a new website in Google Chrome, but it has also happened while saving a document in OpenOffice Calc.

When the screen freezes, Ubuntu becomes entirely unresponsive. The only way I've found to move forward is to press the reset button.

There seems to be some correlation between how recently I've updated packages related to my video card and the frequency of the freezing. I apologize for not being able to provide more specific information.

Thank you for your help!
