if I put in a cheap PCIe video card and disabled the intel one...
Nope, at that point under Gnome you
no longer have a functioning
keyboard or mouse, so the shift to tty3 is not possible.
Maybe your problem is something else then just a "GPU hang" ?
In my case I evertime could switch to tty3.
mouse is moveable/visible but after a click nothing happens, as described in the bug
report. Keyboard is working as usual.
just the GUI is dead.
maybe you could ssh into the box next time to see if it is the *not* GPU and save the
money.
or find something investigating the log's after the reboot (but I guess you checked
that alraedy)
