Nothing's holding me back...not sure what you mean by that?
If you look through all the comments in this bug, you'll see that the variety of systems and symptoms is so varied that it's difficult for the developers to find anything common. Some people experience complete and total freezes, where every process stops: no mouse, no clock, no ability to SSH into the box, total dead-ness. Others experience something less than a total freeze: mouse still moves, can access via SSH. Some people have Intel graphics. Some people have AMD or nVidia. Some people seem to relate the freeze to USB peripheral activity.
Also, I don't think it's correct that the kernel update has fixed the problem for *everyone*. I've tried every single kernel, and all of them have frozen up at one point.
Given all that, it's reasonable to state that this particular bug report is probably not too useful anymore. I'm not denying that there's a problem. But I can't believe that a single bug is responsible for everything that's been reported here.
