[Andrew <keen101@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone know how to do the bisecting? The instructions at the above
link that christopher provided are helping, but not a complete
walkthrough. I'm trying my best to muddle along. I have successfully
cloned the ubuntu-wily kernel repo and i've successfully started the git
bisect process. It has picked 38eb1dbb0d7d190bdfe2ea824e94dab19e32737f
as the first git bisect commit i need to compile and test. But i'm not
sure how to properly compile this commit into a kernel in order to test
it. The instructions on the ubuntu wiki for normal building kernels from
source do not work. I'm trying to use the kteam-tools. It keeps saying
that is an invalid commit. I'm probably just missing something simple,
but if anyone can help it would be appreciated.

  [Dell Inspiron 3451] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1297 at /build/linux-lts-

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After upgrading from stock Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04 my laptop
  consistently freezes up and is unresponsive to keyboard or mouse. The
  only way is to do a hard shutdown. I'm usually in a browser when this
  happens, and often watching a video or two. It seems to happen more
  often in Google Chrome than Firefox, but it happens with both. It has
  happened at least once with no videos loaded. I haven’t observed it
  freeze / hang when I’m not in a browser, but that's mainly what i use
  my laptop for, so that's where most of my time is spent.
