actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
Does a restart of the X server using alt+sysrq+k not o it. Hard reboots
are not advised.

Are you fully updated?

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

can you also provide the output of:

uname -a

You may benefit from the -30 kernel (experimental) as this has been
shown to benefit intel video chips. You can always boot to the current
kernel if its bad and uninstall it.
