Hello,
I put in a brand new OCZ SSD hard drive and did a fresh install of Karmic 64-bit on my Lenovo T500 laptop. At first the Radeon 3650 wasn't working but I found the hacked / patched "nobackfill" xserver to fix that.
Now, however, I still have two major problems that are plaguing my system:
The mouse / entire system will hang, usually for just a couple seconds, when I select a block of text and press "CTRL-C" to copy it. Also, the same thing happens when skipping to the next song in Rhythmbox. Hitting "Next Song" causes the system to become unresponsive. It doesn't happen always, but often, and it's pretty maddening. This happens both with and without compiz enabled.
I've had three full on crashes so far. One was while opening a menu in Empathy, one was recording audio in audacity, and another while trying to record a desktop session with gtk-recordmydesktop. The mouse could still be moved, but X / everything else was dead -> hard reset.
Anyone else having the same problems? :-|
