Hi all, I should have asked this earlier. Could anyone affected please test disabling rc6 power management?
To do that, hold shift to display GRUB, but instead of pressing enter to load your OS, press 'e' to edit the boot parameters. Append i915.i915_enable_rc6=0 as a kernel boot parameter.
For example: linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-17-generic quiet splash vt.handoff=7 i915.i915_enable_rc6=0
See if this solves the problem. I'm testing myself and will report back
