You have been subscribed to a public bug: I am using Ubuntu 18.04.2 on Dell Inspiron 5559. I have 8GB of RAM and 2GB swap space. A week ago I installed HWE to get latest kernel versions. Yesterday I got an update for kernel 4.18.0-24-generic which was for reasons held back. But I installed that using `sudo apt install <package_name` and rebooted the system.
Whenever I boot my system with the very same kernel, after using Firefox, Chrome, terminal and System Monitor just for 5 minutes, my all RAM is used up and swap space is 75% used and system hangs horribly. I literally can't do anything. After a reboot same thing happens again. I use Vanilla GNOME installed using the package `ubuntu-gnome-desktop`. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment kernel-bug -- Ubuntu 18.04 with kernel 4.18.0-24-generic freezes just after 5 minutes of boot. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1834233 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
