[Bug 1456184] Re: NVidia VGA freeze with new kernels

 

Perhaps there is a misunderstand here: the PC was already updated to the
last available BIOS version. If there is a but in the BIOS, than that
bug is not going away. BTW I have a friend of mine with a laptop with
AMD CPU and more or less the same NVidia card that had similar problems
resolved in the same manner: installing the 12.04 generic kernel.

When (if I can) put my hands on that laptop I'll send a complete but
report for that too.
