[Bug 376928] Re: Random system shutdowns during inactivity (Total power off) after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04
I'm glad the issue has been resolved in the meantime (quite a while ago, actually). "Fix committed" is not the correct state for this ticket. I'll close as invalid instead since the root cause of the problem was never pinpointed. I'm quite sure the problem was indeed valid and some fix along the way took care of it, we simply don't know which one and that's when we use "invalid" as well. Your report was certainly appreciated, thank you for your time. ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: Fix Committed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376928 Title: Random system shutdowns during inactivity (Total power off) after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/376928/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have a system showing very similar (and unpredictable) shut off behavior. I noticed in my logs that motd was getting called via cron just as the system seem to vanish. The next entry in the log was me rebooting the box. In this case, it always happened during inactivity, until this morning. I ran r...@www:~# [ -x /usr/sbin/update-motd ] && /usr/sbin/update-motd 2>/dev/null repeatedly by up arrowing and running as fast as I could. after a few seconds is just powered off, in a flash. It's a 64bit server 9.04 Ubuntu install on a AMD 4800+ system with 4 GB of corsair ram. System has never had any trouble up until now. -- Random system shutdowns during inactivity (Total power off) after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376928 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Steve, My best guess would be a display driver issue. Are you running an NVIDIA or ATI binary driver?

Re: Overheating - Unlikely. This has happened after it's been up for as long as several days, or as short as a few minutes after a restart, when the system had been powered down. It's a HP laptop with nVidia GPU. Re: Micro-cut - This is a laptop. Battery would have taken over for power loss. I'm hoping it's some type of code related issue, as, again, this NEVER happened until almost immediately after I upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04, using the upgrade option thru update manager. This hasn't happened since the last one occurred on 5/17, but I haven't used the machine as much, recently. There have been 2 code pushes in the last week, so I'll see if there is any change. -- Random system shutdowns during inactivity (Total power off) after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376928 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Computers are very sensible of micro-cut in electric power, which can be seen as power-off. -- Random system shutdowns during inactivity (Total power off) after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376928 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Is it possible it is overheating?

I happened to catch it in the act, finally.. and there's nothing to give a hint to the cause of the problem. The system simply shuts off, as instantly as flipping off a lamp switch. -- Random system shutdowns during inactivity (Total power off) after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376928 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
