[Bug 585765] Re: Ubuntu 10.04 random freezes

 

Just adding a note that this affects me as well.  Importance seems like
it should be pretty high.

Random freezes often occurring (minutes) after a default 10.04 install
on an Asus 1201N, 32bit, apt-get upgrade'd all including 2.6.31-22,
ext4, nvidia ION, Atom 330 dual-core, 2GB system with all on-board
components active via bios settings (webcam, wireless, LAN, card-reader,
USB controllers, etc) running latest ASUS 3.26 bios, NOT using nvidia
proprietary drivers, and networking via the realtek wireless.

System is essentially unusable.

Note: running 'sudo powertop' will freeze it every time.

Seems kernel related (apparently kernel panic; caps-lock LED blinking),
and perhaps related to acquiring of hardware stats/ACPI, although using
the built-in LAN (wireless off) seemed to help, where on wireless,
system froze in minutes; on built-in LAN, system ran fairly stable.
Perhaps removal of HAL in 10.04 is not quite baked?

No logs to add; typing this from win7 factory install (dual boot).

Thanks in advance for any resolution on this issue.  My former eee 901
with 9.10 was rock solid and would love to continue running 10.04 on my
new fancy machine :)  Will try the 'noapic nolapic acpi=off' options
since that may help.
