Public bug reported: My laptop has a kernel problem with the Ubuntu 15.04 live disk.
The Kernel reports constantly about a NULL pointer reference. Sometimes the X-server starts without the Unity interface and the UI freezes constantly for a few seconds. It often ends with a complete freeze of the computer. Other times the computer freezes before the desktop was loaded. I think it could be the radeon driver for my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650.
