*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 227806 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227806 I tested the 2.6.24-20-generic kernel and it does not solve my hang. Interesting tidbit, I could not update the kernel using my ATI 8500 video card. Not enough uptime. Change to my Rage 128 and viola!

I do not want to say it too loud (yet), but 2.6.24-20-generic from the proposed updates seems to finally fix the freeze for me! I am sure that it was something subtle, so my compliments to who finally got it!!! Thanks Sergio -- hardy random freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227882 You

Further testing with Intrepid gave me random locks, though it is much more stable than Hardy. Hardy will lock up unattended. Intrepid requires user activity before it will lock up, and even then it will run for an hour or so. I tried swapping out my video card, ATI Radeon 8500, with an ATI Rage

Just in case the post above is not clear, I did not get any lockups using the ATI Rage 128 card. I used each distribution for the specified amount of time, then rebooted back to my stable Kubuntu 7.04 when I was finished. -- hardy random freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227882 You

2.6.24.19.36 as recently pushed through the security channel has not fixed the freeze issue (and quite reasonably, since it was not its purpose I believe). Ubuntu bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1 possibly aggravating. Specifically, solution step #3 in bug 1 gets severly hindered by

In the end I resorted to experiment myself with vanilla 2.6.25.9. Spent a night compiling it and the nvidia stuff. It works without any problems and it is stable. Hence: - either 2.6.24 was a very poor choice for Hardy because the upstream 2.6.24 is the cause of the random hard lockups; - or

Apparently the -rt kernel eliminates the freeze for me. However, it is very bad in performance, with non-smooth scrolling, etc. and it does not allow some modules to compile (e.g. slmodem). Please, someone be so kind as either: backport 2.6.25 to hardy (in case 2.6.25 does not freeze). The

I installed Fedora 9 on this same machine (different 40Gb hard drive) and have had no problem with freezes in over an hour of uptime. This is much better than the ~10 minute uptime I was getting with Hardy. I know it uses a newer kernel and patches (2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 vs. 2.6.24-4.6-generic
