Hello,

after installation and some weeks of using cubes 3.2 I'm still facing troubles 
with the system hanging comletly.
It starts with very delayed mouse and keyboard input - finally everything stops.
When looking with top in dom0 no obvious memory hungry tasks.

However I have to reboot or even stop the computer the hard way pulling the 
mains.

With my other OS's on the same computer no such troubles.

Where can I look into to trace down this problem?

I have a dell precision 5500 with 16 GB Ram an 3 VM running (sys-firewall, 
sys-net, fed23) and dom0 of course.

Everything is pretty much standard installation.

thank you



Hi,

I put all my results between the lines:



Hi,

A little more info could be helpful: CPU model, bios revision, GPU and
current driver

lscpu shows Intel Xeon E5606 @ 2.13GHz
Bios A13
Driver: /sys/bus/pcidrivers/nouveau/0000:03:00.0
GPU: GF108



Did this not work after all... ?

No it does not work. However I thought it would since it did not happen for 1 
day or so.


Have you run a hardware diagnostic (including RAM and disk)?


Yes, I run memtest and this time I installed on a completely differnet 
(externel) USB HD


Do you see anything in 'xl dmesg` or 'dmesg' that look like serious errors?


I don't recognize any error


Does upgrading to ('unstable') kernel 4.8 help?


I did not try 4.8 but I tried from testing repositories 4.4.38-11



Does upgrading to fedora-24 template help?

Not tried yet, but would it stop the complete system when changing templates?


Thank you


I have a feeling its NVIDIA/nuveau that's causing it; notice your graphics card is different than Drew White's.

A few suggestions:

* Run a full hw diagnostic. This program is usually found in the BIOS

* Try upgrading to the 4.8 kernel; this will update the graphics support and bring other improvements (I've been using 4.8.9-12 for a long time now without problems). Use a command like:

sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable kernel

* Try a different graphics card such as AMD Radeon

* Upgrading to fedora-24 (or debian-8) template is less critical for stability (but recommended anyway). You would have to stop all VMs using fedora-23 to make the switch.
