Progress report.

Machine is still locking - but FAR less frequently than before, I would say that the pipe-A has greatly reduced the frequency.

It has frozen 3 times in the past 2 days.

First time was lid closing and reopening the lid caused a freeze approx 1 or 2 seconds after the screen came back on.

Second time was about 10 minutes after the first time.

Third time I had been using the machine for approx 1 hour (from cold boot) and it froze.

I left the laptop on overnight and it has not frozen, but I noted the screen had not gone blank and the machine was very hot (like no power saving had occurred) - I don't know if this is a xorg issue and/or power management ?
