Comment 0 for bug 1033263

After activiting Nvidia drivers complete freezes (only hard reset works). Mouse cursor moves, all else seems to come to an instant halt.

Hardware: Acer Aspire 7520, Geforce 8400m G (shared memory).

(Re)installing Nouveau drivers 'solves' the problem. Newer Nvidia drivers from PPA unsucceslful as well (same problem).

Laptop works like a charm with 11.10 and nvidia drivers.
