[Bug 1594046] Re: lts 16.04 crashes frequently on acer TC-605
Didnt get the bug reports after the restart. Removed the quiet and splash options from the grub_cmdline_linux_default setting, but that doesnt seem to help. Still getting occasional crashes. Getting close to the time to switch to redhat, or another linux, I think. saw one report saying this sort of problem ceased happening after switching from linux 4.x to linux 3.x kernal. Might try that. Has anyone got any suggestions please ? Is there a big backlog of bugs waiting to be triaged ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594046 Title: lts 16.04 crashes frequently on acer TC-605 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1594046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

One other thing - after restarting from the frozen session, I didnt get any bug report dialogues coming up. Will restart again before updating grub per prior entry and see if it asks to lodge a bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594046 Title: lts 16.04 crashes frequently on acer TC-605 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1594046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The suggestion from http://askubuntu.com/questions/776069/ubuntu-16-04-freezes-during-use which I found using the search mentioned in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1578944 to addintel_idle.max_cstate=1 to the options on GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= doesnt seem to have worked. I applied it to the default grub option, did sudo update-grub, restarted, logged on, did a few things then went away to do some other stuff. When I resumed working on the machine, it had frozen, except for the mouse pointer, which was able to be moved around, but no click or keyboard action got any response from the system. (the initial suggestion from the ask ubuntu answer referred to above was to replace "quiet splash" with intel_idle.max_cstate=1, but the later comment said just adding it worked for that person, so I tried adding it. I will now try replacing (i.e. removing the "quiet splash" as well as adding the above) instead and see if that works) meanwhile, one of the items I read mentioned same mouse pointer was able to be controlled but all else frozen. Will search again for that and see if it had another solution which I can try after I check the replace referred to above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594046 Title: lts 16.04 crashes frequently on acer TC-605 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1594046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Seems similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1574951 (found as first case with search for Acer alone, without mentioning distro, or the words crashes, frequently, or the machine model. I wasnt sure which package needed to be noted so picked the ubuntu-release package. maybe should have indicated unity or compiz or something like that. Also did searches using Acer + freeeze, for LTS 16.04 release - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1592442 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1578944 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1528880 similar for other releases - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1511844 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1509723 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1509723 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/733392 and search for acer + crash but the only one found which seemed relevant was the first one listed above - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1592442 Based on this suggestion, I have added a line to the grub entry for my dual boot start menu - http://askubuntu.com/questions/776069/ubuntu-16-04-freezes-during-use (thanks to the reporter of bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1578944 for the reference) Will keep an eye on the system and advise if the above workaround avoids the problem. If it does, it may suggest how the underlying cause can be found and fixed so the need for the workaround can be obviated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594046 Title: lts 16.04 crashes frequently on acer TC-605 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1594046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
