[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1531845] Re: Xorg freeze
I have been working with no problems since Jan. 20. Today an Ubuntu update wanted me to reboot, then after reboot the computer froze when I started Android Studio. Rebooted again, same, and again. What seems to help is when I type IBUS_ENABLE_SYNC_MODE=1 ibus-daemon -xrd (from here: http://tools.android.com/knownissues/ibus) I'm not sure if this actually works, but now I disabled ibus and I have no freeze. The issue they report is different from what I see. For now, I'll just never reboot my computer. I hope someone is working on the bug.

My computer hasn't frozen in over a week. I haven't rebooted, until this morning when an Ubuntu update wanted me to reboot.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1531845] Re: Xorg freeze
Today I tried the daily build of Ubuntu 16.04, from a live cd usb. Nouveau worked fine, but I can't seem to run Android Studio on a live cd, so I couldn't test the freeze issue. There was a problem with java. Maybe I should create a live cd usb with a large disk space, so I can install java and as on that.

I tested Nouveau with the standard iso from the ubuntu site. Should I test with the daily build? Currently, I don't have any issues, after rebooting after testing with Nouveau. I hesitate to test right now, I'd like to get some work done first, I"m afraid that rebooting will give me freezes again.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1531845] Re: Xorg freeze
Nouveau makes it worse. When I start Android Studio, Firefox immediately grays out, AS stops loading before it even opens a window. Then the computer remains frozen, until I stop java processes in a shell. Also, I don't see how a graphics issue can make CPU2 or CPU3 hang, but never one of the other CPUs. It can't be just a bug in Android Studio, because AS should not be capable of hanging up my computer. Also, it can't be just a bug in Ubuntu or in the bios or cpu, because it only happens with Android Studio (except once in gedit and once in a shell). I suspect AS does something other software doesn't do, which triggers a glitch elsewhere. Yesterday night, I ran Prime95 software to calculate Mersenne prime numbers. This kept my cpus at 500% with low priority processes. All software would still run normally, not slower, but AS wouldn't run. It pushed prime to using over 600%, which is weird, and it wouldn't start, just hang until killed. I tried Prime95 because they found a glitch in Intel Skylake cpus. My cpu is 5th generation, not Skylake. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1531845 Title: Xorg freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1531845/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Oh, I'm sorry. A while ago I re-opened a bug, then I was told I should file a separate bug instead. Never mind. I haven't tried this particular bug with nouveau. The reason I use Nvidia drivers is that I couldn't get my system to work with nouveau. I used to use nouveau until about a year ago. If you want me to try, I can try.

Fyi, the bug didn't occur between the first boot with the new bios, and the first reboot after that. I rebooted just to see if that wouldn't bring back the bug. I usually don't reboot that often.
