Have you upgraded the linux kernel as well? The version you are using is 
quite outdated, as even stable has 3.2.
I'm using the 3.11.10-1 linux kernel and gdm3 3.8.4-6 and do not have 
this problem, so please try to update the kernel.

I reduced the severity to important, as it works for most people.

Best regards,
Andreas
