[julio <julio.borreguero@xxxxxxxxx>]

i have an acer aspire ES1-711 and have this problem as well.
kernel boot parameters are
cat /proc/cmdline 
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.3.0 root=/dev/sda6 ro drm.debug=0xe i915.enable_rc6=0 i915.semaphores=1

it happens absolutely sporadically, it can be running 30h without crashing or it can happen within hours.
it seems like setting kernel parameters for i915 doesn't change anything, i tried all of them.
no logs, no crashdumps. just a complete freeze without any option to do anything.
i have tried all kind of kernels, only 3.x a few and 4.x series a lot of them, now i am running 4.3.0 since a few hours.
my operating system is gentoo linux.
i also have another partition with linux mint rafaela (ubuntu 14.04 based i believe) there the freeze doesn't occur.
i have also tried disabling cpu-frequency scaling in the kernel completely, have tried playing around with intel_pstate, but that does not seem to be the problem as well.
now i will enable all the panic flags like described in the crashdumprecipe and hope to get any trace generated

Title:
  [Acer Aspire ES1-311] Ubuntu freezes occasionally

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I am running Ubuntu 15.10 and my notebook freezes occasionally. I had
  the same issue with Ubuntu 15.04, but I thought that 15.10 might
  change it. I am running Ubuntu on an Acer Aspire ES1-311 (P1D5).

  I have no clue what causes this, my system just freezes and I can't do
  anything anymore. ctrl+alt+f1 doesn't work as well as alt+print+REISUB
  doesn't work either. It's just frozen. I have to power down manually.

  Last time I was programming only with a gnome-terminal and atom
  (editor) opened. I checked some log files but I couldn't find anything
  suspicious.

  Any ideas?
