[Bug 1529612] Re: Xorg server randomly hangs without response

 

alex, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

As per http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4150#bios
an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (F15).
If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

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, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not.
3) Please mark this report Status New. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Xorg server randomly hangs without response

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Xorg server handomly hangs in unknown conditions.

  How to reproduce: dont know. Just hangs randomly. It is likely more
  often when playing youtube video in chromium-browser.

  Conditions: bug was in Unity session and in OpenBox as well, so it is
  not a Unity bug. Bug is also reproducible with `startx`, mean
  launching X session not wih display manager but login in console and
  run `startx`.

  How it looks like: screen just hangs, but the mouse cursor is moving.
  No one window react to mouse clicks or key press. Global keys (window
  managaer's)  don't work also. The only way to switch to anouther tty,
  login as root and restart display manager.
