Bug Description

I was working in Chrome and system suddelny freezes. I could move my mouse inside the window but could not get out of the borders. And system was not responding to any clicks or any keybord buttons or shortcuts.

This happens a lot. Usually always when I work on linux at least once... It is really annoying because only hard reboot helps.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream stable kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.13 stable kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

The lastest kerne linux-image-3.13.11-03131102 made my graphic driver not to load - or whatever happened, I just could not saw full resolution on the screen, just some really small unproportional resolution.

Therefore I needed to uninstall it and everything is back to normal. I still cant tell if the problem is already solved (meanwhile I installed some updates and reinstalled my NVIDIA graphic with sudo apt-get install nvidia-current), because it takes time to occure. I will inform you in next days if it still happens.
