Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
The computer freezes randomly, roughly once per day at no particular time with no particular trigger. The problem existed in 9.04 and 9.10 with identical hardware, and now in 10.04, although I cannot say for sure if it is the same bug. The lockup is total. I have not tried rlogging in over the net, nor have I yet checked whether Alt-SysRq-K will work (something only just learned about). I have no idea if the information collected by apport is going to show you anything. If there is a better way or better time to run apport-bug (or ubuntu-bug or whatever), I'm all ears. All the information gathered by apport here was some time after rebooting from the last lockup. I usually have Firefox running, but I do not believe it is necessary for this bug to occur. It definitely did not matter what I had running back in 9.10. I do not remember if I had a freeze occur with no apps running yet in 10.04. I am technically literate, but I do not know my way around Linux packages, log files, debugging tools. I should be able to follow instruction easily enough, or start to debug myself once pointed to the right information (depending on available time). I also do not know myself whether "xorg" is the correct package to file this under -- it is what apport-bug chose based on its interactive wizard.
