Bug Description
I just did a fresh first-time install of Ubuntu on a Dell Inspirion 14 with no modifications apart from installing Canon printer drivers and no 3rd party peripherals. The desktop freezes spontaneously. When it freezes, the display freezes including the mouse pointer, and all keystrokes are unresponsive (can't even do ctrl-alt-F3 to get a tty). Forced power off is the only possible action.
I think this is irrelevent, but I'll mention that (I think) the lockup only happens when I'm using VLC to play MythTV-served videos from the LAN. Nothing else is running.. not even a browser. I'm simply watching a video and out of the blue it hangs. After rebooting, I play the same video I was watching just before the hang, and finish watching without a freeze up. Which means there's no relation to the video data.
