I am still having this problem even after adding 'acpi_backlight=vendor' to grub cmd option, but now crash occurs less often. This problem also occurs when brightness changes due to power on/off. In this case(when frozen) if I remove or plug-in charger, brightness level changes but nothing else work. Sometime I notice that Brightness Indicator doesn't display brightness level correctly.
