please try this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes

Here relevant infos:

From an installation:
1) Hold down Shift while booting to enter the GRUB menu.

2) Press 'e' to edit.

3) Add "i915.modeset=1" after "quiet splash".

4) Ctrl+x to boot.

If adding "i915.modeset=1" to your boot parameters allows you to boot successfully, you then need to enter the command above into a terminal to make the changes permanent.

If it works you need to update your grub2 kernel settings to have this boot parameter be permanent

Referring to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 and to this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#grub (/etc/default/grub)

You need to change the file /etc/default/grub from Applicationa→accessorie→Terminal type:

gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub

Change the row:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

to

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.modeset=1"

Then save and close then still using terminal type:

sudo update-grub2

Then reboot your pc.
