Hello to you all! I am showing up here because I have the same issue. I found this thread this morning after blaming the hardware on my notebook for a year but rethinking this to be a software issue this morning. I will try out the solutions here to contribute on this this evening.
Please, how are the actual informations on pinning down this issue to a subsystem? What I want to contribute at first is technical stuff. I have exactly the same issue on this constellation (all tried out in 2013): Dell Studio 1558 with BIOS A04 and A12, HD4500 ATI debian or archlinux installed several installed linux-3.1n.x versions several recent fglrx catalyst legacy drivers several recent open source radeon drivers Yes, no ubuntu launchpad issue at all! Yes, all the same crash but the pattern on screen after crash is different: fglrx is flashing a couple of chars in the pattern, radeon displays a mor simple pattern with no flashing chars.
