Hi all,

I never solved this, but eventually got rid of the freezing by buying
and installing a whitelisted intel centrino wireless card and replacing
the broadcom card. Freezing has stopped. It was clearly the broadcom
card that was the problem. This is not a great solution, but its been
worth it to have a stable machine.

Title:
  Random system freeze in 13.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am having a problems after upgrading to 13.04. This problem was not
  apparent in 12.10.

  My system now freezes randomly. When this happens i cannot input (no
  mouse, no keyboard) or output (if music is playing it starts to skip)
  anything from the machine. The only option left when this happens is
  to hard reboot by holding down the power button. The freeze appears to
  happen randomly and could occur after 3 minutes of use or after 10
  hours. It has even occured during the shutdown process.  I have no
  sense what, if anything causes the freeze.

  I have seen that i am meant to upgrade my BIOS before posting bugs,
  and while my BIOS is out of date, i see that my BIOS update now
  includes a UEFI update which i am worried will break my system. As
  such before fiddling with the BIOS i thought i'd see if this was a
  kernel issue or a bug.

  I am running 64bit Ubuntu 13.04, dual booting windows 7, on a Lenovo
  Thinkpad x131e.
