It will not respond to ping, ssh, http, or - any other request. + This bug seems to affect computers with an Intel video card. Server and + desktop installations. - The server must be hard rebooted by holding the power button or - unplugging it. + When the computer is run without a monitor, or the monitor is put to + sleep (NOT blanked), the system will lock up after ~10 minutes. The only + way to restart the computer is to use the REISUB Magic Keys or to hold + down the power button until the system halts. (The latter is the only + solution for a server installation running without a keyboard). - It appears that attaching a monitor and keyboard to the server box keeps - it from crashing. - - Possibly Intel video card related. + Adding nomodeset to the boot line or disabling monitor sleep seems to + fix the issue. ** Summary changed: - Ubuntu 9.10 crashes when run headless + Ubuntu 9.10 crashes when run without monitor or when monitor sleeps. -- Ubuntu 9.10 crashes when run without monitor or when monitor sleeps. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/474930 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
