I have a regression in Karmic: after living with the "green" drivers for
a couple of week and everything was fine, I upgraded to Karmic on
Thursday and ever since I had multiple freezes. I don't know if this is
related to this bug, but I'll assume that it is unless someone tell me
otherwise:

I got only one freeze while working, and it looks exactly the same as
this problem: the screen freezes but the mouse still responds and I can
ssh into the machine. But most of the freezes where while the laptop was
on power with the lid closed, which means the screen is actually off and
when I open it several hours later nothing responds - the computer is
still on but the screen is disabled and nothing I do brings it back. I
haven't yet tried to ssh into the laptop when its like that as usually I
need to do something right away and I have to power cycle it.

Anyway, going through syslog I found this which might be related:

There are several copies of these over a period of about 20 minutes,
each almost exactly 2 minutes after another (as can probably be deduced
from the error message) before it falls silent again - I can't tell for
sure whether its related to the freeze, except that these messages have
appeared after I closed the computer when it was working and before I
opened it again when it was not.

Going back through the logs, I found another set of events like this at
another time that I remember the computer freezes, but it was yesterday
and I may be mistaken about this.
