Similar prob. MacBook Pro 4,1
With binary nvidia driver

Linux max 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:24 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Happens when LibreOffice is running and laptop sleeps/resumes.

Typically Writer is very slow and causes whole laptop to pause for several seconds.

Get this error in Xorg.0.log:
[mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.

To 'fix' I rmmod bcm5974 and modprobe bcm5974 and quickly kill LibreOffice and reopen it.

The trackpad (BCM5974) clicks still function but there is no mouse cursor.

I have bcm5974 removed/reinstalled before/after a sleep/resume - does not seem to help.

No other application seems to cause this.

Need anything else?

PS: A friend with a virtually identical setup has same problem.
