That freezing happened with me some times in the past weeks; I'm using GNOME
3 with a NVIDIA Corporation C61 [GeForce 6150SE nForce 430].
I couldn't use the keyboard, only the mouse, whose clicks produced no
response at all from the computer. The freezing stopped a download of mine
within
Hi, I'm not at home for several weeks, so I cannot work on it.
I have tried all the ideas I could find on different forums, but nothing
worked. I'm not the only one in that case.It's a known issue but today there
is no known solution!
Haven't looked further into this, various reasons. :/
ptifred: What's the current status?
I have a GTX 660. Are you using Compiz at all while the freezes occur? If so,
the problem might be the same issue that I'm having, in that Nouveau support
for 3D for the 600 series of cards just isn't stable yet.
I'm able to run 3D stuff, but often the screen will corrupt or the GPU will
Hi everyone,
I've installed Trisquel 6.0 on my desktop computer. Everything worked fine
during the installation and the updates.
But yesterday, on two occasion, the screen was frozen. I could move the
mouse, but couldn't clic anywhere, and there was nothing I could do except
rebooting with
Welcome to the Trisquel forums! :D
What kind of video card do you have?
What kind of hardware have you got? Open a terminal and input

Hi,
It's a NVIDIA Corporation GF119 (Geforce GT620)
According to this post[1], the Nouveau driver should work for that card.
But on the 3.8 kernel, it seems that Trisquel 6.0 includes the 3.2 kernel[2].
Thanks for the links, lembas. I was about to ask someone to help with that.
:p

That's a fairly new system all right. You might want to try a newer
Linux-libre kernel.
Here's the source if you wish to compile yourself
www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/
Here are prebuilt binaries

:) Great minds think alike!
Hmm..
Could you run the command below in the terminal and post the output?
uname -a
Can you get into a tty? (CTRL+ALT+F1-6, I think 6 works too..)
This post seems to have a possible work around.[1]
Could you try the steps listed, then attempt to run Celestia again?

No, that doesn't work... It froze after a few minutes.
Still looking through some comments on that page.
It may take quite a few moments. :o
(Working on stuff, and tons of comments)
In the mean time, if anyone has any ideas, please post.
Thanks for your patience with this, ptifred.
In this occasions, probably, you can reboot safely using the Magic SysRq key:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key (kudos to Lembas for pointing
this out in another thread/topic).
No, even the magic keys do not work... It's really completely frozen.
