I can confirm this bug for my Samsung R60 Plus, running Debian, with every Kernel I tried from Squeeze trough Wheezy (2.6.32 - 3.2.0) and several Liquorix Kernel releases (latest was 3.8). When the bug hits, input of any kind is no longer possible. Music or videos currently running are continuing to do so. Unplugging the laptop from the power source won't make a difference (as in, the backlight brightness won't reduce as it usually does) - it just seems to continue running as it would be while stilling being connected.
In the past I was running the Xfce4-Power-Manager. Whenever one of those freezes happened I just pushed the power switch on my notebook and the system de-froze. In the configuration the result of activating the power switch was set to "Fragen" (ask me). Running i3 a temporary fix for me would be to autostart the Xfce-Power-Manager and "de-freeze" the system manually once it happens (which is, as of now, roughly once every day). But waiting for the problem to fix itself won't do, it seems. I guess I'll have do dive into Kernel patching and compiling in the long run - one thing I hoped I don't have to do, ever. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578506 Title: [Kernel] ACPI: EC: input buffer is not empty, aborting transaction To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/578506/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
