CID: 201303-13031 Dell Alienware X51 R2

After resume from suspend with open-source driver, the desktop freeze, only the cursor still responding. You can still access this with ssh.

Error message could be found in Xorg log file
(EE) [mi] EQ overflowing. Additional events will be discarded until existing events are processed.

This issue does not exist with proprietary driver installed, therefore I won't tag it with the blocker tag.

Po-Hsu Lin, as per http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product-support/product/alienware-x51-r2/drivers an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (A10). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid.
