[Bug 1590869] [NEW] radeon freeze

 

Public bug reported:

Since installing Kubuntu 16.04 a freeze bug keeps appearing on my
system. It appears only in rare occassions and I don't know a way to
trigger it on purpose.

I activated kernel crash dumps according to
https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/kernel-crash-dump.html, but that
didn't work as expected (no crashdump was saved). But after activating
that mechanism I was able to ssh into the system the last time it
happend and I was able to dump the output of dmesg into a file.

It seems to be related to the radeon driver. This bug is extremely
annoying as it freezes the system immediately without prior notice. And
I had to push the reset button, REISUB didn't work.
