Public bug reported:
Gutsy was really stable, never had a problem for the longest time. When
I upgraded to Hardy I started getting random lockups that require
hardware reboot. The lockups happen completely at random, usually
within an hour. It "seems" to come faster when using the network
(either wired or wireless). The lockup is total, no mouse movement, no
numlock change, even the (wired) network ligths don't respond after a
lockup. This is the same bug as 204996, but that bug has been reported
with a fix released and I'm affraid has been ignored since then. As far
as I understand, the fix is with intrepid (kernel 2.6.25) but no fix as
been released for Hardy (non that works for me anyway). Since Hardy is
supposed to be for long term support, I believe a fix needs to be
released for it specifically.
My hardware is the nearly the same as the original 204996 poster: Dell
C400, 512MB, Broadcom BCM4306 wifi mini-pci card (Dell wireless 1350).
PS: There are no other problems. No problems rebooting after a crash,
no blinking screen, nothing happening before the freeeze, it justs stops
responding is is completely dead to anything. I checked in the kernel
log files and there was nothing at the time of the crash, nothing at all
(with 2.6.24-17).
HELP!
