Bug#767173: Reg: gnome-shell: Display freezes but mouse stays operational

[karthikeyank]

 I can still confirm the bug, I am using gnome-shell version "3.14.4-1".    Is
it fixed or the root cause found?  if there is any other workaround to overcome
the issue plese let me know.

I couldn't find any specific pattern of this freezing issue.  But, for me
freezing happened in the following situations/scenarios,

1.  When the notification/dialogue boxes are opened
     ex a) file properties dialgue
          b) (file) save location selection dialogue opened
2.  While browsing (randomly & some 50+ tabs opened in iceweasel)
3.  While opening nautilus/gedit etc as root user
Almost all the freezing scenario the mouse pointer is moving but click function
not works.

On each freeze I do switch to tty1 and issuing  "/etc/init.d/gdm3 restart".
