i too have the exact same issue and thats with the feisty final release kernel.
my laptop is an asus z96f with Intel cpu and chipset. the basic problem seems to surround the following dmesg and syslog messages: [ 6105.876000] ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) [ 6128.892000] ata2: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd0) [ 6128.892000] ata2: soft resetting port [ 6129.236000] ata2.00: ata_hpa_resize 1: sectors = 78140160, hpa_sectors = 78140160 [ 6129.244000] ata2.00: ata_hpa_resize 1: sectors = 78140160, hpa_sectors = 78140160 [ 6129.244000] ata2.00: configured for UDMA/100 [ 6129.424000] ata2.01: configured for UDMA/25 [ 6129.424000] ata2: EH complete [ 6129.440000] SCSI device sda: 78140160 512-byte hdwr sectors (40008 MB) [ 6129.456000] sda: Write Protect is off [ 6129.456000] sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 [ 6129.488000] SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA [ 6129.496000] SCSI device sda: 78140160 512-byte hdwr sectors (40008 MB) [ 6129.496000] sda: Write Protect is off [ 6129.496000] sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 [ 6129.496000] SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA [ 8876.524000] ata2.01: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen [ 8876.524000] ata2.01: cmd a0/01:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/b0 tag 0 cdb 0x25 data 8 in [ 8876.524000] res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/b0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) i have included dmesg and syslog as attachments for review ** Attachment added: "dmesg" http://librarian.launchpad.net/7351047/dmesg -- Acer 9410 ATA hangs, system freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107271 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
