[Bug 1514233] Re: Ubuntu 15.10 freezes during operation.

 

GPdM, as per http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-14-r200
-notebook-pc-series/7486429/model/7698594#Z7_3054ICK0K8UDA0AQC11TA930O2
an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available
(F.39). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it address the issue?

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.

Also, you don't have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible, and the
information above is provided, then please mark this report Status
Confirmed. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.
