[Bug 1552333] Re: After upgrade to 4.2 kernel Ubuntu 14.04 LTS randomly freezes completely
I cannot go to upgrade to that daily image because this is the company's
laptop and I have work to do.
What I can tell more than that is that yesterday after lunch I installed
the kernel 4.4.5-040405-generic (from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/v4.4.5-wily/) and that it did not freeze since. In
addition, with this kernel I have no problems using the apt to update
software (as I was having with 4.5.0-040500rc7), but I could not install
the proprietary wireless driver bcmwl-kernel-source for my wireless card
(Broadcom Corporation BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter) because
"kernel package linux-headers-4.4.5-040405-generic is not supported".
I may go and try an older kernel (but still something above 4.2, like
4.3) hoping that it will not freeze my laptop and that it will work with
the bcmwl-kernel-source package. At this point I will move again the bug
in status Confirmed, because I cannot give you more info (I cannot go
and install the daily image of 16.04).
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

Title:
After upgrade to 4.2 kernel Ubuntu 14.04 LTS randomly freezes
completely
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I am not sure whether this is related to Xorg because of following:
Today it happened a few times this complete freeze. Before today never
happened. Today I did a normal system update in the morning, then a
ditro upgrade which just upgraded a few unimportant packages, then the
first freeze happened. Later I upgraded the kernel from 3.19.0 to
4.2.0 and after that a few more freezes happened. I attached the apt
log generated today and including the last update yesterday:
apt_log_for_day_with_upgrade_to_kernel4.2.log. Each time this
happened, before freeze I saw in the log something like:
9492 Mar 2 14:00:08 my-ubunty kernel: [ 2514.659171] [drm] HPD
interrupt storm detected on connector HDMI-A-1: switching from hotplug
detection to polling
And once or twice I saw right after that something like:
9493 Mar 2 14:01:13 my-ubuntu compiz: pam_ecryptfs: seteuid error
Then some binary content
I also use disk encryption (the one from Ubuntu).
Each time the freezing happened, the mouse and keyboard weer dead and
the screen was frozen in whatever content was displaying at that
point. So the only think I could do is to press the power button for 5
seconds.
I upgraded from 3.19 kernel (linux-generic-lts-vivid) as follows:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-wily
Thank you.
