That is correct.  The default raring kernel will be very disappointing
for people that are experiencing the problems outlined in this thread.

It seems that only >3.9.7 has a usable kernel for affected Sandybridge
users (I am using a Lenovo X220).  Even then, the bug remains at some
level but it more of a minor inconvenience than a show stopper.  I've
settled on using 3.9.8 from the mainline ppa.

The 3.10.x series presents new drm prolems with Sandybridge (weird
taring and rendering artifacs) so I would not recommend those either.

Bug description:
  I'm getting errors about GPU hangs every minute or so (usually only
  when using FF and scrolling a webpage or something). I also get an
  annoying ubuntu dialog saying there is a "system error".

  This didn't happen with 3.5.0-24-generic.

  Here is the dmesg:
