Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
There seem to be many versions of this bug around, but I cannot decide whether mine is identical to any of those.
My screen randomly freezes a few times a day with only the mouse moving. The keyboard reacts to nothing. ssh-ing in is still possible. This has been happening since I upgraded to jaunty a few weeks ago.
I cannot think of any similarities between the situations in which it happens, except I think it always happened during mouse movement.
I followed those instructions:

I noticed that scim was in a zombie state when I ssh-ed to my system.
My graphics device is Intel 82852/855GM integrated.

Thank you for reporting this bug. This is close to a perfect bug report and I was just about to send it upstream when I noticed that you are running the 2.6.28-11-generic kernel. You probably forgot step 0 in https:/ /launchpad. net/~ubuntu- x-swat/ +archive/ x-freeze- test . Would you mind going through the same procedure and making sure that you are running 2.6.30-rc6 which you can get from http:// kernel. ubuntu. com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/ v2.6.30- rc6/
If you wish, you may then send the bug upstream yourself. A model bug report would probably be https:/ /bugs.freedeskt op.org/ show_bug. cgi?id= 21572 which is also a freeze bug forwarded from ubuntu (bug 356850). If you can also upgrade to 2.7.1 of the intel driver it would be even better (see https:/ /launchpad. net/~ubuntu- x-swat/ +archive/ x-updates/).
