[Luca Lazzeroni <luca@xxxxxxxx>]

We experience the same problem with Ubuntu 14.04.3 on Intel Compute Stick (kernel 3.16.0-58).
The device works without problems for a while, but after a random time (between 6-7 hours to 1-2 days) the screen freezes, but applications on the device still run.

I've submitted a bug report to Intel thinking the problem was in their
driver, but now I think problem is elsewhere (since users with Nvidia
experience it).

If this can help, I can add that while the screen is frozen if you do
the:

xrandr --output HDMI1 --off

and

xrandr --output HDMI1 --preferred

the screen start working again without reboot.

Maybe the problem is in xrandr ?

Thank you,

Luca
