[Bug 1314368] [NEW] HP Pavilion dv8 Freezing in Ubuntu 14.04 (NVIDIA GT216M [GeForce GT 230M]

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Since installing Ubuntu 14.04, onto a HP Pavilion dv8 laptop, the unity
desktop is freezing a couple of times each day. Typically at first, I'm
able to move my mouse-cursor, but after a few seconds that freezes up
too.

I'm not sure what's causing this, but here's the video card it uses:

lspci -vnn | grep -A12 'VGA\|Display'
