[Bug 908335] Re: Kernel Hard Freezing Very Often

 

Huh seems like the bug still exists and works very fine :(
I've Dell Vostro V131 with Intel Core i5, Intel Graphics +
Ethernet: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 06)
Wifi: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1030 [Rainbow Peak] (rev 34)
USB 3.0: Texas Instruments TUSB73x0 SuperSpeed USB 3.0 xHCI Host Controller (rev 02)

My laptop from time to time just freezes hard. Nothing with Sysrq work, there is no sign of anything in logs or dmesg. I've thinking this is RAM or SSD issue but after repleacing them the issue still exists. 
Now I've installed mainline kernel from PPA: Linux vostro-v131 3.17.1-031701-generic #201410150735 SMP Wed Oct 15 11:36:31 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux the issue still exist and the hangs still happens.

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
