[Bug 469820] Re: [GM45] system locks up at random intervals, except mouse

 

xXPenGuiNxx, sorry for not getting back to you before. It looks like the
kernel is an important component to consider for these freezes. Could
you do one of the two things (I would prefer the first option, but the
second option may be easier for you if you are depending on having a
relatively stable system):

1. Upgrade/install Lucid. Then we can verify that the freezes also
happen there. A batchbuffer dump from Lucid with xorg-edgers would be
great. Possibly also with kernel 2.6.33-rc5, but the standard Lucid
kernel should also be okay. Note that if you have space, you may install
Lucid on a separate partition and keep using our Karmic partition if
something goes wrong with Lucid.

2. Install the latest mainine kernel from [1], (see also [2]). Currently
it is v2.6.33-rc5. There may have been fixes in the kernel that stops
the freezes. If not, a batchbuffer dump from running with this kernel
would be great.
