Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
Xorg freezes quite frequently (about once daily). Usually, this happens when playing streaming video. The screen will stop updating, and audio from the buffer will continue to play (on one occasion, I was able to continue to listen to several minutes of audio from a streaming television episode). The mouse cursor moves, but otherwise, there is nothing available to do apart from hard-resetting the computer. Ubuntu 11.04 xorg 1:7.6+4ubuntu3 I expected that the videos would play flawlessly or that Flash would gracefully crash, instead of the entire system, as in 10.10. Instead, the entire system hangs due to xorg.
