** Description changed: Hello! I recently upgraded from ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 and now there's one thing that's driving me crazy: As long as I am working, everything is fine. When the screensaver starts and I return to the computer after some minutes and press a key or move the mouse, nothing happens. Another 2 minutes (125.5s, based on 4 measurements) later, the unlock-screen appears and I can continue working. It also happens when watching a movie with VLC, I took the time: after 323s of not moving the mouse oder hitting the keyboard, everything freezed and 91s later, the movie continued. The movie did not continue at the point where it stopped, but 91s later, as if it was still running. I did not press any keys in that time. What is so strange about it: - ping to the freezed computer works, I immediately get replys, so the kernel seems not to be affected - I cannot connect to ssh nor use any existing ssh-session on the server - the hdd-LED is not blinking when freezed, so I assume that all running processes are locked too What I already tried: + - running memtest, memory is oaky - changing the screensaver to "blank screen" - turning of energy save mode for monitor - upgrading to kernel 2.6.27-11 and latest nvidia-mods from intrepid-proposed repository (read that in a forum) Before upgrading to 8.10, I was working with 8.04 and did not experience these problems. I hope we will find out where this bug comes from and find a solution. Please tell me if you need any log-files or more information!
