["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Simon Volpert, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better. As per
http://www.toshiba.co.uk/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=UK an
update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (2.30).
If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status New.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Xorg freeze

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The system freezes (display shows last image before the freeze) at
  random intervals with no obvious indications and has to be hard-
  rebooted. The logs seem to be cut off at the moment of the freeze, and
  the system becomes unreachable from the net.
