[Bug 662998] [NEW] System freezes when running on battery

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When running on battery, the system will completely freeze (mouse
pointed doesn't move, CTRL + ALT + DEL doesn't reboot, Alt + F<1-10>
doesn't open up a new console window).

The only escape is to hard power down the machine.

This seems to happen only when running on battery.  It happens
approximately every 25-30 minutes after the system is resumed on battery
- Although if the power is plugged in, removed and plugged in enough
times it will cause the system to freeze (2 or 3 times usually does it).

Nothing appears consistently in the log files which would indicate a
cause (although I am no expert).
