Public bug reported: There is sudden freeze of keyboard and mouse followed by flickering of led screen, I have found a work around by pressing ctlrl+alt+del resulting in opening of restart and shut down dialogue box. Most of the time the flickering stops without restarting the computer but some times I have to force restart the computer. I am using Ubuntu since 2008 and the problem started after upgrading from 15.04 to 15.10,it still persists after a clean reinstall and complete update yesterday.
