JazZ, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8Z68V_LE/HelpDesk_Download/ an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (4102). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-4102 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1511476 Title: Unstable unity session Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hi, My unity session crash randomly, when I am working on my computer, or when nothing is done in my computer. This occurs repeatedly since I have installed ubuntu 15.10. This does not happen on my laptop. The main difference I noticed between my computer and my laptop is that my laptop has an NVidia Graphic card and my computer has an intel Core™ i5-2320 as CPU/GPU. So it has no Graphic Card. Here you will find my syslog file content, during the crash : Oct 29 18:23:10 choupchoup org.a11y.atspi.Registry[1438]: XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0" Oct 29 18:23:10 choupchoup org.a11y.atspi.Registry[1438]: after 5183 requests (5183 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
