[Bug 587701] Re: Computer freezes about once a day.

 

Hi,

As I said in my 2010-06-06 comment, the problem seems to have been fixed
on my computer a long time ago. At the time, I did remove the 'needs-
upstream-testing' tag as per instructions. I believe my computer has
been updated multiple times and I have not encountered any problem
since. Even the screen flickering I mention above is gone. If it helps,
uname -a gives me:

3.2.0-51-generic-pae #77-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 24 20:40:32 UTC 2013 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux

This post made me aware that my computer is more than 3 years old. It's
aging well for a sub $400 machine. Everything is still lightning fast,
in huge contrast to some more expensive windows machine I have been
forced to use on occasion. Go Ubuntu!

Title:
  Computer freezes about once a day.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I recently installed the latest Ubuntu on a new NV59 laptop and
  everything works great except that it freezes about once a day. The
  freeze is completely random and unpredictable half the time happening
  during the night  (I come back to a frozen black screensaver screen in
  the morning)  but also often during the day when I'm surfing the web
  or doing something else. The computer is on AC power and is set never
  to go to sleep. The image displayed on screen seems to freeze to
  whatever was showing, the mouse cursor stops moving and ctrl-alt-
  backspace or ctrl-alt-F1 doesn't do anything. Sound seems to continue
  working for a while. It once happened while I was having a skype
  conversation and I was able to continue the conversation for a minute
  or so after the screen stopped responding.
