X freezes, have mouse, no tty [Lucid]

[s7726]

The display freezes although the mouse still functions. I am unable to ctrl-alt-F# into a terminal, although the machine can be accessed via ssh. The only solution I have found is a restart. There does not appear to be a link to the amount of time the machine is running. There may be a link to running Eclipse Indigo (Version: Indigo Release, Build id: 20110615-0604). I am using it for work though and have not had time to use the machine, without eclipse running, for an extended period of time to determine if it freezes otherwise. It will freeze without Eclipse being the foreground application though. I collected the dmesg and Xorg log info from an ssh session immediately after a freeze.

Description: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
Release: 10.04

Expect: System doesn't freeze
Instead: System Freezes

At end of Xorg0.log:
[mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.

gpu lockups are typically bugs in the kernel drm, refiling.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . If possible, please test the latest v3.2-rcN kernel (Not a kernel in the daily directory). Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag(Only that one tag, please leave the others). This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.

If this bug is fixed by the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream-KERNEL-VERSION'. For example, if kernel version 3.2-rc1 fixed and issue, the tag would be: 'kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.2-rc1'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. If you believe this bug does not require upstream testing, please add the tag: 'kernel-upstream-testing-not-needed'.

Thanks in advance.

s7726, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
