[Bug 1366876] Re: Xorg freeze

 

James Ferguson, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better. As per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-
netbooks/thinkpad-x-series-laptops/thinkpad-x230 an update to your
computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (2.63). If you update to
this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it
change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status New.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Xorg freeze

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Desktop display freezes temporarily, for (approx) 20s or so, approx
  once a day, with mouse pointer still working.  After that it comes
  back and resumes as normal, seemingly replaying mouse and keyboard
  events from the meantime.  I think it's always happened when using
  Google Chrome (Stable - currently 37.0.2062.94, but I think other
  recent versions).  The desktop is completely unresponsive

  This didn't seem to happen until a few weeks ago.  I tend to pull
  updates fairly regularly.

  In syslog there is:

  kernel: [277415.130771] [drm] stuck on render ring

  I suspect this is a dupe since I see other related bugs, but you'd be
  better placed to decide that than I.
