Sad news: I had the same crash with the 3.19.8 kernel a couple of times now.
The obvious symptom is that the screen turns off and searches for a new signal
source (HDMI/VGA/etc.).
This time it happened when zooming in Firefox (CTRL+Mousewheel) while a Youtube
video was loading in a background tab
Testing with ppa kernel 3.19.8-031908ckt6-generic seems to resolve the issue.
At least no more crashes/freezes have occurred since then.
I have added the 'kernel-fixed-upstream" tag as requested.
