Ben, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305#bios an update to your BIOS is available (F4). 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
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Summary changed: - Kernel panic crash to black screen on AMD systems + 1002:9616 [Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 (rev. 4.1)] Kernel panic crash to black screen ** Tags added: bios-outdated-f4 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318322 Title: 1002:9616 [Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 (rev. 4.1)] Kernel panic crash to black screen Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu 14.04 crashes two to five times a day with kernel panic to black screen.
