BIOS updated... good find. Thanks for that. # dmidecode -s bios-version CO96510J.86A.6100.2009.1004.2331 # dmidecode -s bios-release-date 10/04/2009 I've re-enabled wifi. Let's see how long it goes. If, after two weeks, all seems well, I'll mark it resolved.

EricDP, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/22642/Intel-Desktop- Board-DQ965GF an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (6100). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? 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: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect): sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not. 3) Please mark this report Status Confirmed. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-6100 ** Changed in: linux-lts-trusty (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux-lts-trusty (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388645 Title: System hangs randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-trusty/+bug/1388645/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1388645] Re: System hangs randomly
Perhaps a clue: after the upgrade, I was also finding my wifi was a little flaky. Last week I disabled wifi and unloaded the ath5k drivers and other related drivers. The system has been up 10 days now, which is the longest uptime since this problem started. From dmesg: ath5k: phy0: Atheros AR2414 chip found (MAC: 0x79, PHY: 0x45) Could this be the culprit? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388645 Title: System hangs randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-trusty/+bug/1388645/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Understanding the Linux Mint is derived from Ubuntu, I tried Mint 17.1. It also hangs. Understanding that Ubuntu is derived from Debian (though it roots may be far back), I tried Debian 7.8.0.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode. To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1388645/+editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.

[Bug 1388645] Re: System hangs randomly
Assuming kernel bug as it happens somewhat randomly and is not associated with anything I'm doing (or not). ** Package changed: ubuntu = linux-lts-trusty (Ubuntu) ** Tags added: apport-collected trusty ** Description changed: I recently upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04. Afterwards, my system started hanging randomly, sometimes after just a couple hours of use, and the longest it went was about 32 hours. It's a full on freeze, not just X: Ctrl+Alt+Fx does nothing. SysRq+REISUB does nothing. I've tried tailing syslog and watching dmesg and there is nothing interesting logged near the hang. I ran memtest86+ two full passes, no errors. Assuming maybe there was a problem with the installation or upgrade process, I tried booting from a 14.04.1 USB (tried both 32-bit and 64-bit), and both hang after a few hours. I also tried stepping back, using a 12.10 USB that I found and it also hangs. Assuming it was related to newer kernel, I then tried to boot from a brand new 12.04.5 USB (using the latest 3.13.0-32-generic kernel), and the system did *NOT* hang... I ran it for five full days with no problems before I rebooted to continue troubleshooting the problem -- so the newest 12.04 still seems good and the latest kernel seems good. But something in 12.10 and beyond is bad. I installed a crash-dump kernel and it doesn't seem to work - still hangs and doesn't load the kernel.
