Drat. Ok. To recap: * Asus P8Z77-V LE. * Newish system. Works fine under load (e.g., Folding@Home) but when you started normal interactive use it started to freeze a few times a day while you were interacting with it (in particular, the freeze happens around the same time as a keyboard or mouse action). * The freeze is a bad one --- the fan spins down, the NIC stops responding, caps lock doesn't light up, ctrl+alt+del and magic sysrq have no effect. No messages about it in netconsole. * Happens reliably (how reliably? >80% of the time?) after a few hours of sustained use (?) * Logs available in the bug log. No obvious smoking guns. ;-) * Changing the amount of memory allocated to the integrated GPU in BIOS doesn't change anything. * The above describes 3.2.23-1. Based on a week and a half of running 3.5.5-1~experimental.1 it doesn't seem to be affected. None of the changes from 3.2 to 3.5.5 are jumping out as likely candidates for the fix, but that's a pretty wide range. How reliably can you reproduce the hang on a known-bad kernel? If you have time to try 3.2.30-1 from sid, 3.4.4-1~experimental.1 from http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/ and 3.3.6-1~experimental.1 from http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux-2.6/ then that could help narrow down the search. Thanks again for your help and patience. Regards, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
