Did you tested 3.7 kernel ? Bunch of patch went in some might help your case.
No, not yet. Will build and test a 3.7-rc1 based kernel and report back.
Thanks, Kunal
OK, didn't get time to try 3.7-rc1. So, instead, installed 3.7-rc5 based Ubuntu kernel from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/
(specifically, following files: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-headers-...
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-headers-...
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-image-3....
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-image-ex... )
With this, situation is no better. In fact, with this kernel, I cannot even switch to a tty to restart X - which works happily on my current 3.2.0-32-generic (package: "linux-image-3.2.0-32-generic" version: "3.2.0-32.51").
There is no significant message logged in the syslog with 3.7-rc5 which can point to a problem. Attaching the dmesg output and Xorg log anyways.
Thanks, Kunal
