Understanding the Linux Mint is derived from Ubuntu, I tried Mint 17.1. It also hangs.
Understanding that Ubuntu is derived from Debian (though it roots may be far back), I tried Debian 7.8.0. It does *NOT* hang. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-lts-trusty in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388645 Title: System hangs randomly Status in linux-lts-trusty package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I recently upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04. Afterwards, my system started hanging randomly, sometimes after just a couple hours of use, and the longest it went was about 32 hours. It's a full on freeze, not just X: Ctrl+Alt+Fx does nothing. SysRq+REISUB does nothing. I've tried tailing syslog and watching dmesg and there is nothing interesting logged near the hang. I ran memtest86+ two full passes, no errors. Assuming maybe there was a problem with the installation or upgrade process, I tried booting from a 14.04.1 USB (tried both 32-bit and 64-bit), and both hang after a few hours. I also tried stepping back, using a 12.10 USB that I found and it also hangs. Assuming it was related to newer kernel, I then tried to boot from a brand new 12.04.5 USB (using the latest 3.13.0-32-generic kernel), and the system did *NOT* hang... I ran it for five full days with no problems before I rebooted to continue troubleshooting the problem -- so the newest 12.04 still seems good and the latest kernel seems good. But something in 12.10 and beyond is bad. I installed a crash-dump kernel and it doesn't seem to work - still hangs and doesn't load the kernel.
