Comment 19 for bug 1412602

I was encountering some issues installing 14.04.1 which I'll get into later, but for now I moved on to testing 14.04.2, this one installed w/Ubuntu-GNOME 14.04.2 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20150203), and while 3.16.0-30-generic was affected I pulled 3.16.0-31-generic from trusty-proposed and it appeared to be OK for a while, at least I was not getting the same screen corruption.

In fact I began a forum post from that Trusty install but before I was done the screen became unresponsive, but not entirely frozen because I could move the mouse pointer, then after a minute or two the screen displayed the error in the attached pic.
