[Bug 908335] Re: Kernel Hard Freezing Very Often

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Jmadero, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Kernel Hard Freezing Very Often

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” package in openSUSE:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I (and others in the forums) are experiencing MANY hard freezes in
  Ubuntu since upgrading to Kernel 3.0. Here is as much information as I
  can give now but I'll run anything (including the possibility of
  allowing a remote connect) to diagnose this problem as I think it is
  serious and has the potential to ruining machines as I'm frequently
  having to hard shut down which of course runs the possibility of
  damaging a hard drive.

  Problem: Hard freeze very often (I've had as many as 5 in an hour).
  Hard freeze definition from me:

  1. Mouse stops moving
  2. Keyboard actions have no response (including alt+cntrl+f1)
  3. Hard drive spins for a shor time but then stops
  4. Only way to fix is hard shut down

  What's been done:

  1. Checked logs (willing to provide any but I couldn't see any problem)
  2. Tried finding out if software is triggering it, seems to be random, could be wrong

  
  Again I think that this is a major problem so I'll do whatever it takes to provide information. Thank you in advance
