[Bug 1497627] [NEW] Periodically video will freeze for no reason at all and no specific time between freezes.

 

Public bug reported:

This has been going on for over a year. It doesn't matter if I have any
applications open such as Evolution or Firefox. It could happen any time
during the day when I'm working on the computer or during the night when
its' the most idle. Once the video freezes the cursor can still be moved
around the desktop however clicking on anything does not work. During
this time all background process and cronjobs continue to run.

Running the command listed below:

chris@localhost:~$ cat /proc/version_signature > version.log
cat: /proc/version_signature: No such file or directory

Of course what I expect to happen is the video to not freeze every so often.
What happened is that the video froze.
