[Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes
Hi nachocual, This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux 352373 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message.

[Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes
It doesn't appear that a kernel upgrade to 2.6.30 solves this issue - at least not for some of us. My own experience and that of some others suggests that the apparent randomness of the freezes can create the belief that the problem is solved in the short term, when it is actually not. I am running the .30 kernel and it is freezing to black as much as ever. A couple of people have reported some success by (a). rolling back to an earlier xorg-ati driver or (b). recompiling the version of X for 8.10 to work on Jaunty.

[Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes
Ok, I had two more freezes today - so far...Last night (early this AM) I managed to go a few hours without a crash: used Firefox and watched a couple of videos - including the dvd I was watching when it crashed earlier in the day (though with a different player). The first crash happened just after initial boot, as network manager was connecting my wireless. After I rebooted from that I opened firefox (two windows and a couple of tabs) and I heard the hd begin to write furiously (might have been the update manager). I touched my mouse wheel and the screen dissolved to black. Nothing worked. The hard drive light remained on steadily, but I couldn't hear if there was any actual writing going on. I hit the power. A little later an interesting thing happened. I opened a text file in Abiword and I noticed my temperatures climbing steadily. My processor monitor showed heavy continuous processor use at about 80%. My temp. widget is untrustworthy - it shows four temperatures in the fifties (Fahrenheit - it says) normally - but I don't see why the trend can't be trusted. The temps rose until they peaked out above one hundred. I had to terminate Abiword (didn't close normally), and the temps. immediately dropped to normal, and the heavy processor use stopped.

Re: [Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes
Only way to fix these freezes is to install kernel 2.6.30 from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and to user packages from xorg-edgers ppa. This is the only combination which worked for me.

I see the freezing up on my Gnome-based Ubuntu running on an AJP M3000N since the Intrepid - Jaunty upgrade. I reported this as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/375072 in case it was distinct from this bug report. The freeze up definitely seems to be Xorg related rather than Linux related since, as long as I have a wired Ethernet connection, I can ssh in the back and the machine is fine. No keystrokes work on the laptop itself though so power cycling is the only recourse if working on wifi.

[Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes
Update: even though updating to Karmic still led to freezes with 2.6.30RC3, I reinstalled yet again and have had no crashes with this setup: Karmic upgrade from Jaunty server, 2.6.30RC3, installed only KDM with compiz and konsole set to run in .xsession. I didn't install kwin or gnome but let gnome install as a dependency of screenlets but nothing set to default and nothing automatically running except KDM, compiz, konsole and screenlets at login. I think this may be related/dependent on KDE4.2 or specifically plasma. While I do miss plasma, I love no crashes. Anybody experience similar or crashes with Gnome? If I have time, I try to add applications until crash time and see if I can narrow it down. I installed kdm only, not kde-core as previously done and am using compiz to replace x-window-manager (as bare as I could make this install) and it works very well. Performance is way better than a standard KDE install. ** Attachment added: the glory of compiz-only dual screen action with Karmic and no crashes.

Compiz with skip_checks just worked and performance is faster than it was when I installed kde-core with additional KDE components as done previously.

Same issues here. Never an issue in Intrepid but since Jaunty RC from Alpha on and now my newly installed Jaunty release, random freezes. I have had no errors reports in Xorg.0.log, syslog, etc. to work with. Occurs with and without Compiz enabled. Can only ALT+SysRQ to reboot (not able to jump to terminal).

[Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes, sometimes flashing capslock light
Yes, as additional information is proven out, it is usually useful to fix both the title and description. This can help prevent other users from getting confused and think they have the same issue as you, when they do not. (Or conversely can help bug workers notice if your bug is a dupe to a known issue.) While caps lock flashing is an almost certain indication of a kernel problem, not flashing does not mean it is not a kernel problem. Many non-X kernel crashes/lockups/etc. don't show themselves with flashing caps lock. Thus my curiosity that you moved it back to X. For kernel bugs, usually you look in dmesg, /var/log/syslog, and other log files to locate an error message. Fwiw, the word randomly in a bug report usually is a good sign that the issue has not been adequately analyzed. When filing a good bug report you should always strive to boil the problem down such that you do not need to use that word, much as you wouldn't tell your doctor, Doctor, I feel pains randomly through my body... ;-) -- [jaunty] System randomly freezes, sometimes flashing capslock light https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/352373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have also seen a decrease in the occurrence of system freezes. Bryce, could you explain me how could I further analyse the problem? I don't know what to look for in the logs or in the dmesg tool. If you don't have time point me to somewhere where I might find that kind of information, I didn find it by myself.

[Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes, sometimes flashing capslock light
Bryce, I did it because I'm not getting flashing lights any more, so I thought it wasn't the kernel what's causing the problem. If you think it should be assigned to linux anyway, please change it again, didn't mean to be rude. By the way, should I change the description to reflect the new situation?

Heh, blinking capslock is a fairly good sign you're getting a kernel oops, not X.

[Bug 352373] Re: [jaunty] System randomly freezes, sometimes flashing capslock light
I don't know, last 3 or 4 times it happened, the mouse stopped responding completely and there was no flashing light. My guess is that at the moment of reporting the bug I was experimenting two different kind of system crash, the kernel related one being solved by the recent updates. The one that's still happening should be xorg related.
