Hello,
I am experiencing frequent GPU lock ups as mentioned here (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/Freeze). I hope I posted this thread in the right section.
System info: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bits on Medion 8822 PC, Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6400 @ 2.13GHz, Geforce 7650 GS, nvidia driver version 304.121. See attached lshw file for more info.
Symptoms: The freeze mostly happens when I have some graphical programs open (Inkscape, Gimp, Blender) and then click on the Unity button (not sure if it's called like this, the top left button in the main menu). Although I run one or more of these programs most of the time, so I'm not sure about the reltion with this problems. At one time I was able to duplicate the freeze a few times by starting blender and then clicking the Unity button. Now this way of triggering the freeze does not work anymore.
I also noticed that the "recent opened documents" in Gimp, Inkscape are erased. Recent documents in Open Office and Blender are not affected
At the freeze my screen starts to flicker randomly although the flickering responds to mouse movements. The clock (right top corner) is also freezing. I use ctrl F12, Ctrl F1 and Sudo restart lightdim to get things up and running again.
Log info: I retrieved dmesg.txt and Xorg.0.log. Please find attached. NB: I had to curtail dmseg.txt (removing lots of the "No irq handler for vector" entries) to reduce the file size.
I would very much appreciate your help in this.
