[precise] screen locks up with mouse cursor moving

[Eugene San]

screen locks up with mouse cursor moving
Started somewhere around beta1.
In my case triggered reliaebly by running NX client (background or foreground) but only to machines on LAN.

Unfortunelty problem was mis-identified by ubuntu-bug as an duplicate therefor reported manually.
Detailed crash report attached

intel_gpu_top showed:
render busy: 70%:
bitsream busy: 100%
blitter busy: 100%
GAM: 100%:
No other tasks appeared and GPU got very hot.

Update:
Using backported from Quantal Kerenl (3.4.0-1.x) solves the problem.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Henk-Jan (henk-jan)]

Do you also have "GPU at 0000:01:00.0 has fallen off the bus" in kern.log?
Run "cat /var/log/kern.log* | grep fallen" to see that.
If so, this is probably a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/882710

[Brad Figg (brad-figg)]

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. From a terminal window please run:

apport-collect 988008

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

Eugene San, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. One may execute at the Terminal:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install xserver-xorg-video-intel-dbg && sudo service apport start force_start=1

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

Now reproduce the crash, then open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit.
If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'. Please follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Debugging when you file this crash report so the necessary information is provided.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

It's official, the only thing I did was dist-upgrade, which is normal.
