Same issue here on Ubuntu 13.10 Nvidia GT 750M using nvidia-331 and nvidia-prime. The same issue doesn't happen when using #18 fix or using an external mouse. I also have a touchscreen (eGalax Inc. eGalaxTouch EXC7910-1023-12.00.00) - I wonder if that can cause the issue.
Regarding #18 fix, any idea if touchpad scrolling can be enabled (using a Synaptics touchpad here)? I would rather have scrolling - sure the freezes are annoying but Ctrl + Shift + F1 and Ctrl + Shift + F7 quickly brings it back - better than having no touchpad scrolling. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-prime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1220426 Title: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-319” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: I'm using an Optimus laptop (Asus N43SL) nvidia-prime is installed, so my nvidia dedicated graphics card (GT 540m) is in use. Once in a while, my screen will freeze, only when I use my touchpad. This does not happen with my USB mouse. This does not happen either when I uninstall nvidia-prime and use my intel integrated graphics (HD3000). I can temporarily solve the issue by doing a VT switch. In the attached Xorg.0.log, you can see "synaptics: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad: touchpad found" each time I did a VT switch and regained control.
