Sometimes it + unfreezes but most of the time I'm locked onto that screen and I must do + a 'hard crash', aka shutdown the computer with the on/off button, I + don't like doing that at all. So then I turn on the computer hoping that + it isn't frozen, the cursor but most of the times it is, very + frustrating to me. So then I might go to the windows side of the + partitioned HDD to have the cursor act normal, stay there for a bit and + restart the computer and then maybe the cursor will be 'not frozen to + logon. If that doesn't work I might go to one of the ubuntu recovery + modes to see if I can get it working there and then restart the computer + again. I think that is all i do and i hope this issue can be resolved + sooner than later.
