the system completely freezes so i have to use the power button. but after the movie player hangs it takes about 7-10sec before the system freezes.

In my case i have the same laptop: HP 6735s, and i have the same issue.
i try totem and vlc, when i see a dvd at some random point all the system freezes.

All graphical enviroment hangs up. i try to restart gdm (ctrl+alt+backspace) but no response.

Also i try to open other tty console. i put mi login and password but stay there without show any prompt.

No other way to diagnostics, only i i can do is a forced-restart.

i will try to reproduce this error and post the dmesg and others logs.
