Hi, As I said in my 2010-06-06 comment, the problem seems to have been fixed on my computer a long time ago. At the time, I did remove the 'needs- upstream-testing' tag as per instructions. I believe my computer has been updated multiple times and I have not encountered any problem since. Even the screen flickering I mention above is gone. If it helps, uname -a gives me:
3.2.0-51-generic-pae #77-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 24 20:40:32 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux This post made me aware that my computer is more than 3 years old. It's aging well for a sub $400 machine. Everything is still lightning fast, in huge contrast to some more expensive windows machine I have been forced to use on occasion.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I recently installed the latest Ubuntu on a new NV59 laptop and everything works great except that it freezes about once a day. The freeze is completely random and unpredictable half the time happening during the night (I come back to a frozen black screensaver screen in the morning) but also often during the day when I'm surfing the web or doing something else. The computer is on AC power and is set never to go to sleep. The image displayed on screen seems to freeze to whatever was showing, the mouse cursor stops moving and ctrl-alt- backspace or ctrl-alt-F1 doesn't do anything. Sound seems to continue working for a while. It once happened while I was having a skype conversation and I was able to continue the conversation for a minute or so after the screen stopped responding.
