Asus N53SN Random graphics hang.

[fyodor]

Hello. I use lion 10.7.1 on my system. Almost everything works. The major problem is that sometimes randomly the whole screen freezes and dont respond any click or keyboard command. Only thing that can move is mouse pointer. I know that the system itself dont freeze. Because i can hear music when that happens. Also these lines was in my kernel log. So please help me

It may be a bug in video drivers, there are similar reports on real Macs.

I gues it is common bug too. That happens sometimes even in windows when the computer wakes from sleep. Despite two bios update that bug still remains. Firstly I though it was releted with bios but after i install mac now i see it is related with video bios. Thanks for the replies guys.

I also have this issue especially with 10.7.2. Even though I reinstalled Lion so many times and in different ways, I still have this bug with my graphics. I freezes every 5 sec with the same message as fyodor in log. For now I'm sticking with 10.7.1 as it is the most stable version for me.
