Same thing here. Total system freeze. I have an older computer with amd sempron, built in graphics. No 3d. I also get a system freeze when visiting some web pages with lots of flash content. Sometimes the freeze happends when resizing a pdf window, or using mouse scroll on web pages. Something seems to go wrong during redraw of the screen. Just a guess. No problems with my new computer with nvidia graphics, though I had the same problem with the new computer a year ago with Ubuntu 8.10 or 9.04 (can't remember which).
My current setup (old sempron desktop, built-in graphics): Puredyne distro installed with xfce (based on Ubuntu 9.10) The earlier setup, a year ago (new intel desktop, nvidia 7300): Ubuntustudio (8.10 or 9.04) with gnome This may not be relevant, but I get this message while booting puredyne: [ 6.745418] codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0xfe0000] [ 6.751798] codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0xfe0000] [ 6.758278] codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0xfe0000] [ 6.764830] codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0xfe0000] -- Ubuntu 9.10 Freezes When Resizing Evince https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510573 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
