I just purchased one of these laptops and found this bug report prior to install. Seeing as there has been little activity I thought I would try 10.10 Maverick Alpha 3 to see if by chance in the months since it has been opened, something silently got fixed. Unfortunately the laptop is not usable. With a fresh install of 10.10 Maverick Alpha 3, it freezes randomly and often. This happens with the Nouveau driver (I have not tried the nVidia driver yet) with and without Desktop Effects enabled in KDE. I am running 64bit, and the only non stock thing configuration wise on the laptop is 12GB of RAM. When the machine freezes/hangs/locks up it is the same as the op. Keyboard is 100% unresponsive, no caps lock, mouse movement does continue however. Only solution is a holding down the power button. So the bug is still present and makes this rather nice machine a complete paperweight, at least with (K)ubuntu. I am sympathetic towards the op and dread the thought of having to downgrade to make it run. I am happy to run tests or provide any information that could be useful for anyone interested in helping resolve this bug. Heck I would even be happy to bounty this if it helped!
