Public bug reported: I've upgraded kernel two days ago following these instructions.
I have Dell Inspiron 15 3542, lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS Release: 14.04 uname -a is: Linux Maschina 4.2.0-35-generic #40~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 18 16:37:35 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux and Google Chrome Version 50.0.2661.75 (64-bit). I was watching video on youtube, switched several times from small video to fullscreen and back, then first Chrome froze and then everything except mouse. Then x restarted and login screen appeared.
