I just had another 'lockup' after about 11 days with the same error message - Feb 13 19:05:22 localhost kernel: [807775.808019] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... render ring idle as has been the norm lately I see a black screen with a movable mouse cursor. CTRL-ALT-F1 will not take to to a log-in screen. I have to manually shut down the system with the power button. Doesn't anyone have an idea as to what to do to troubleshoot this problem? This is on my Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS system running kernel 3.13.0-45-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 13 19:36:28 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. I'm getting no where trying to do this kernel bisection. Am I the only Ubuntu user in the whole world that is experiencing this problem? I definitely want to help get this fixed however I'm just not getting anywhere.

I can't remember what kernel version was in use then possibly kernel 3.13.0-35-generic or -36. It has continued periodically through versions -39; -40 and now to -43. The last time this has happened was today Dec 13 14:40:57 localhost kernel: [154858.820009] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... render ring idle. At times when it locks up I will have a cursor on a black screen and will have to press the power button to restart other times it will lockup whenever I'm in an application such as Firefox or Evolution. At that time I can usually CTRL>ALT-F1 log in and run 'sudo reboot' to restart the system.
