Windows 10 is freezing in the exact same way. I guess something is broken in this laptop and I'll keep using 3.13.x now and Windows 7 until 2019. If the laptop survives that far :) thanks for the help Stefan! ** Changed in: linux-lts-utopic (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received

Sounds more and more odd. Maybe things are related on how long the system is powered on. It has been a while, but I had that once. Random freezes but rather shortly after cold boot. Though that was a desktop and back then it was the connectors of the power supply not all fitted firmly. So

Hi again. I'm continously trying different scenarios, with and without text mode, different kernels, wifi on or off, but I can't say for sure what's going on. A daily image (from 15.4) of Xubuntu Xenial froze after about an hour of usage and after just a couple of minutes the following boot. This

Ok, it sounds more like there could be a crash behind the scene and everything stops working. On the text console bit I was a bit unclear. What I meant was to switch to text right from the start and do the login on the text console and also play around while being in text mode. If it crashes then,

Thanks for the ideas! Did you mean 3.16.0-67 and not -87? I tried -67 now with and without vesafb:mtrr:0. System freezes within minutes in both cases. I also tried mainline 3.16.7-ckt26-trusty and added vesafb:mtrr:3 to this and the system does NOT seem to freeze. This bug is weird. 3.16.0-38 was

Oh, yes. We freeze completely at random. It can freeze at idle after simply booting, when clicking a link in firefox or when just moving windows around. Seems very random :/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-lts-utopic

So the change of cache mode for the VESA frambuffer driver is at least not the only offender. It might even have no impact at all but I would not be 100% sure, yet. Normally this sounds like something that needs a bisect (building various kernels at stages between 3.16.0-37 and 38 which you would

Hi! Thanks for your time. I really appreciate it. Attached cat_proc_mtrr shows 'cat /proc/mtrr' directly after boot for - kernel 3.16.0-37 (not affected kernel) - kernel 3.16.0-38 (affected kernel) - kernel 3.16.0-38 + video=vesafb:mtrr:0 (affected + possible workaround) You were right, the

Odd, in theory that change should only affect the MTRR cache mode of the video memory for the generic VESA framebuffer driver. And while that is used initially it gets replaced later on by the special driver for radeon. Maybe two things: First, after completing boot into an affected kernel,
