Aurosutru, thank you for testing Trusty. Just to confirm, despite the
minor false gpu hang, is the originally reported issue still
reproducible?

Title:
  Regular black screens since automatic kernel upgrade

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since upgrading the kernel along with other automatic software updates
  (about 200MB download) the video of this system regularly blanks after
  a few minutes of operation or shows a black screen with white text
  having machine gibberish that looks like a log file with seconds at
  the left edge. Resetting the display screen to never turn off
  automatically doesn't help.  Unplugging the laptop's monitor and
  plugging it in again will usually restore normal functioning, but only
  for a while.

  This sort of problem occurred the previous two times automatic kernel
  upgrades were installed and was fixed by a display manager update that
  followed about  a week later, at least in one case.  Maybe three times
  is a charm and the underlying problem will now be solved.

  Thanks.

  I'm filing another bug regarding a crash that occurred during one of
  the video hang-ups when monitor unplugging didn't help.
