HP Notebook Laptop - Mouse and Keyboard Freeze - Ubuntu 13.04

I solve the problem with my HP DM1 by disabling 'fan always on'  and 'Function key' in the BIOS.

And adding 'thermal.off=1' to grub config.

To edit grub

Use the terminal and type sudo gedit /edit/default/grub

Edit the text to look like this.

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash thermal.off=1"
 All seems to well now.


Seems like Chrome triggers it to freeze also

You have to hold cmd+shift and then click on the anchor this deletes the anchor.
