Have been running Karmic alpha 2 for approx 5 hours now. Good news is that the MTRR errors are gone. Bad news is the freezes are still happening.
Two lockups. One occurred when I had firefox open, lots of tabs open, 'Normal' visual effects enabled. REISUB'ed. Decided to try turning off visual effects, but got another lockup, this time in terminal looking through kernel logs from the last lockup looking for clues :) I did notice that for approx a minute before the lockup, everything in the terminal went real slow. Like, scrolling via mouse wheel would take 2 seconds before it would start scrolling. Very laggy. It's quite probable that this has happened with past freezes without me noticing however, as I've found some websites slow my computer down to a crawl anyway (probably due to flash). Nothing in the logs showing anything. For what it's worth, I also got the lockup on the livecd too and I noticed before it happened I had a slight font corruption (every instance of 'e' had a line through it). Funnily enough, I also noticed this in terminal before it locked up (this time 'r' was missing a bit) so I don't know if it's related or not. I've reverted to intel 2.4 drivers ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 ) and they've been stable as a rock, full compositing (albeit slowish, it's only intel 815 :) Let me know if there's any diagnostic tools I can run to give some more information. Maybe a version of the intel drivers with verbose debugging output or something. I don't mind it running a little slow while I'm testing, I just want this bug sorted. :) Mike Bryce Harrington wrote: > suckertoo, no problem, hopefully Mike Rose can test.
