The only cure I know for this problem is to re-install Ubuntu from scratch again. Till that time, however, the system remains healthy as long as I don't reboot the OS --- this means I can use my laptop for weeks, as long as I just suspend it and wake it up. Hibernate and wakeup also works correctly.
