@Theodore Ts'o I can consistently reproduce this bug on my Acer Aspire One AOA150, which also has an Atom N270 plus 1GB of RAM and a 120GB SATA HD.
It happens even on a clean install of Jaunty, as well as on a fully updated install, with more than 100GB of HD free. I can reliably trigger this bug by 'rm -rf'ing the LLVM+GCC+CLANG after I build them. You asked about other allocations ocorruring when the bug is triggered. I think the only other thing I was running during these lockups was Firefox plus a few extensions (NoScript, AdBlock Plus, DownloadThemAll ), but I can trigger these lockups even when I log in through Ubuntu's recovery menu on boot up ( which, I guess, has the absolute minimum of processes running in the background ). I also should mention that kernel 2.6.29 ( from http://kernel.ubuntu.com /~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.29.1/ ) seems to have fixed this bug for me. -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
