Dear Sirs, Please feel free to close out this Bug. The Solution as mentioned above was to run with the 4.15.0 Nucleus. The problem was probably caused by the fact that my Computer System was 10+ years old and so it couldn't support the new HWE code in the 5.x Series. Thank you everyone who took the time to look at this problem. Yours truly, Frank Krauss

I ran under Trust Tahr for a long while with great success and no Hangups at all. I recently upgraded to Bionic Beaver and I find that I have a number of Hangups. They seem to occur mostly when switching between different users. The latest one that occurred last night that I want to show you here was caused by something else. I was watching a video from Youtube under Firefox. At the end of it I clicked the upper right hand button of the window to kill the screen. At this point the system froze on me. I could move the mouse around but none of the keys worked. I used the SysrRq - Magic Key combination to get the following information ALT + PrtScrn, ALT + CREISUB The system re-booted and gave me the following files in /var/crash 4096 May 9 23:38 202005092338 349 May 10 11:01 kexec_cmd 25387 May 9 23:39 linux-image-5.3.0-51-generic-202005092338.crash 69696 May 9 23:38 dmesg.202005092338 291014103 May 9 23:38 dump.202005092338 I used the crash program with the Symbols file and in the backtrace section under the exception line it says: exception RIP mwait_idle+132 in the disassembly of mwait_idle the line at +132 is mov %gs:0x72774cb4(%rip),%r12d # 0x10350 Any information that I can supply to you I will be glad to in order to aid you in solving this problem. I'm fairly computer literate and so I can follow any directions that you want to give to me. I have enjoyed using Ubutnu for many years but I do need a Stable environment for my Development work and for my users satisfaction.
