Hi Everyone, For those of you still experiencing issues with Intrepid, care to open a new report? I feel that even though people may be experiencing the same issue reporter here that it really may be hardware specific. I think it would be better, and additionally more helpful to the kernel team, if you would open a new report specifically for your hardware. For now I'm going to set this particular bug to Incomplete until we get further feedback from MHayes, the original bug reporter. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 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

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel.

Hi Guys, LEVIS Cyril - what version of the Hardy kernel are you running (cat /proc/version_signature) Lorin, thanks for testing and the feedback. Hopefully I can answer your questions: a) We actually just released the Hardy Beta version - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . It is always noted that Pre-releases of Hardy are *not* encouraged for anyone needing a stable system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for Ubuntu developers and those who want to help in testing, reporting, and fixing bugs. The great thing about the LiveCD's is you can take the latest release for a test drive to help you determine if you'd really like to install and help test the bleeding edge. Ultimately it's your call if you want to install. b) See http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for a outline of new features as well as known issues with each release. c) Actually Hardy final is set to come out next month, April 2008, hence the release version being set to 8.04. The Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release will be scheduled to come out in October 2008. The Hardy release schedule can be seen here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyReleaseSchedule and the subsequent Intrepid release schedule is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidReleaseSchedule. d) If you do choose to install and want to help with testing, in addition to what you originally did, you can also take a look at the following for more ideas - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cases. -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 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

Re: [Bug 117651] Re: ubuntu randomly freezes
Hi, Leann! After our out-of-towner, I had some time last week weekend to give the HH-alpha distro (LiveCD) a test-run -- here's my results, plus some questions: 1. I downloaded v8.04 and burned it... 2. Booted the LiveCD on Friday evening at approx. 10:00pm 3. As it was never very difficult (only unpredictable as to exactly when) to experience a system-freeze with v7.10 -- and it didn't seem to matter what I was doing, e.g., bash/com-window, Firefox surfing, playing a game, etc. -- I decided to simply play mah-jong until either the freeze happened again or I got tired. ;-) 4. After about 90 minutes, I got tired (had better things to do that late at night), so... 5. I left v8.04 running (from the LiveCD), just let it go to screen-saver, intending to get back to it the following morning (Saturday). But I didn't... 6. Instead, I left the PC running (screen-saver) all weekend, only returned to it this evening (Monday), approx. 70 hours later. Eager to see: was it frozen? v7.10 would'a been, without question. 7. Nope, er, yup -- v8.04 was *not* frozen! Hooray -- small victory! 8. I went ahead and ran/played mah-jong again for about 20 minutes, thinking that maybe I could tip it over its edge... stayed solid working until I shut it down. So, apparently v8.04 is not as prone to freezing as was v7.10 -- Yes, I'm a skeptic, from experience in debugging other kinds of interactive systems. It's very hard to prove the negative, i.e., it *won't ever* freeze... Only long, hard hours of actual use will build that kind of confidence. But there's your early test result -- v8.04 did not freeze on my PC (where 7.10 would routinely, unpredictably freeze, usually within a couple of hours after (re)boot) after a period of over 70 uptime hours, with light interactive use. To me, promising but inconclusive. I'd wonder what the developers would think about this test result... Is it usefully indicative of a solution to this my system randomly freezes problem? Can my own testing technique (mah-jong!) be improved to give it actually a better shakedown trial? Any advice as to what should be next? Given the unusability of my current v7.10 install on this PC (and my desire to actually start using Linux/Ubuntu with a vengeance, both for personal learning and to undertake my efforts to ultimately replace Windows throughout my home-office family's PCs): a) Should I next proceed to install v8.04 from the LiveCD, with the understanding that it's an Alpha release? b) If so, what limitations and/or issues should I be prepared to deal with (other than the recurrence of the system-freeze problem under more-than-light use)? In particular, would I be able to deploy various common utilities and applications (e.g., Emacs, Open Office, virt-machines, WINE, etc.), with the understanding that the platform is indeed pre-release and unstable? c) If I understand Ubuntu's release terminology, the Hardy Heron v8.04 is scheduled for final release in early August 2008, right? So my own liabilities would likely include occasional alpha-, and later beta-, release updates, right, up to the final release? And how often might I anticipate interim alpha/beta releases? d) I presume that affirmative answers to the above 3 questions, the decision to install v8.04 as-is, would put me fully in the pre-release testers camp, right? I'm willing, if you think this is a good idea. I'm willing to proceed on this basis, to use v8.04 as an unstable (but hopefully non-freezing) platform just for learning, leaving my own home-office full deployment until HH/8.04 is in final release. Let me know, please, what you and the developers think about my questions above... With your guidance, I'm willing to become a part-time field tester, if that helps the Community and HH/v8.04 ... warmest regards, -- Lorin Lorin Ricker 10781 Holden Circle Franktown, CO 80116 cell: (303)916-4772 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 3/10/2008 9:45 AM, Leann Ogasawara wrote: Hi Lorin and Michal, The Hardy Heron Alpha series is currently under development and contains an updated version of the kernel.

Hi, Leann -- Many thanks for your response! Yes, I'll get HH-alpha downloaded and burned to LiveCD; however, as I'm not certain that running LiveCD would trigger the problem, and whereas my current dual-boot PC is, at this point, a test-bed only (I've not been able to move into a regular use status on this PC due to this very bug), I'll likely just upgrade on-disk, and then give it a full-blown shot at hanging my system again...

I am having this problem -- just started a couple of days ago on a 4-week old (semi-fresh) GG 7.10 installation (dual-boots w/ W2K on a Compaq desktop, AMD Athlon CPU, 64MB, 2 IDE disks w/ 2 partitions for Linux and 2 for Windows, ATI Radeon 9250 display adapter). This random freezes problem seems, to me, to be a critical bug, impacting Ubuntu availability, reliability and integrity -- It also seems to be showing up in several/various Bug Reports in various descriptions and forms, but these all seem, at the bottom, related. There is a very extensive Ubuntu Forums thread, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=412125, feisty fawn freezes ! driving me insane, with well over 800 posts referring directly to this problem. Support/developers may want to data mine this thread for additional anecdotal evidence, if not already done so... This problem randomly freezes is pervasive and widespread across multiple hardware (e.g., nvidia *and* ATI/Radeon cards, desktops and laptops, Intel and AMD cpus, etc.), releases (feisty and gutsy, at least -- yes, *many* 7.10 users are currently experiencing the problem), and seems largely independent of what, precisely, the user was doing when the next *random* freeze/hang/lock-up occurs (e.g., compriz, firefox, printing, typing quickly, or just mousing around). Various postings on that thread recommend a wide variety of workarounds and fixes for the problem -- judging from that anecdotal evidence, no one thing seems to work, or even to pin-point the problem. This Bug #117651, together with that Forums thread#412125, all seem also related to Bugs #103400 (compiz freezes x server after screensaver kicks in), #108527 (X freezes when compiz is enabled on ATI cards), and #120347 (xorg hang after longer (12h) idle time), at a minimum -- there may be other bug reports that are directly related, tho' using different words/symptoms to describe the same overall problem. Shameless admission: I'm a Linux newbie here -- but I do have over 25 years of sw-dev experience on mainframes and mini's (VMS -- yes, probably mostly irrelevant here! ;-) ) -- and it just seems to me that tying awareness of these Bugs (and others?), together with the above- ref'd Forum thread, would be helpful in resolving this critical random freeze problem for all of us.

Gregor: This is probably the wrong bug to report your particular issue. There's a very small chance given that you are using an AMD that you are seeing Bug #109643 . Further, since you are using manually installed NVIDIA drivers (100.14.09) unless you can reproduce the problem with the open source nv driver then your support options have changed as you are using an NVIDIA package not distributed by Ubuntu. Any problems that occur after installing drivers not provided by Ubuntu repositories should not be reported to the launchpad bug area. If the drivers were downloaded from the NVIDIA web site then the NVIDIA Linux web forum (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14 ) is an appropriate place to report issues. If a 3rd party installer was used please contact the 3rd party for support.

It doesn't sound like Bug #109643 ... I didn't try the nv, because of my two monitors (TwinView). The Nvidia driver provided as Ubuntu package didn't work for me.

I know, that there is no support for external Nvidia drivers, but is there any way to get more information about the crash of KWin? -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 117651] Re: ubuntu randomly freezes
Gregor: If you are seeing KWin problems you are definitely better off filing a new bug report in launchpad that can eventually make its way to the KDE developers. They won't come looking for the issue over here... Again it is worth testing with the nv driver. I know it doesn't do Twinview but if the problem doesn't occur on the single head with the nv driver but it does with the NVIDIA binary only driver then it strongly suggests that the problem lies with the NVIDIA driver and you are better off talking to NVIDIA. If the problem DOES occur with the nv driver then it suggests you have a generic xorg or KWin problem. -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 117651] Re: ubuntu randomly freezes
I have similar problems: I'm running feisty (upgraded it from edgy). But I have a NVIDIA card. Beryl with XGL is installed, but KWin as window manager is loaded, not Beryl. After a few minutes (15-20) leaving my computer the freeze happens. Programmes like Amarok (while playing music) and Azureus still work, but I cannot press any buttons and do mouse clicks. Pressing the Power-Button on my computer's case shows the Logout / Shutdown / ... buttons. So my Linux isn't usable for me at the moment! ** Attachment added: dmesg http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8136211/dmesg_output.txt -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 117651] Re: ubuntu randomly freezes
Kind of the same problem, think it has been reporter in xorg's bug tracker as well (I just do not find the reference right now but there are similar bugs). I think it happens less frequently when using the ati driver instead of the fglrx driver, but I do not guaranty a fail saif. It has nothing to do (by me) with Beryl/Compiz or XGL. Someone on Xorg's bug tracker emitted the possibility for it to be a memory leak than can possibly occur with any driver, but that where some kind of speeded up using some particular drivers or doing particular things (intensive windows resizing has been reported to be likely to help the bug to occurs). I tried upgrading xorg to the gutsy's one, the I have a bug that prevent me from using the 3D in fglrx, but I seem to have much more frequent freezes with ati's proprietary driver (just for the 2D part) than with the free xorg driver ati. When freeze occurs, cpu raise to 100% (both cores), if I have the time, I can stop the freeze by killing xorg (one to five seconds to understand that there's going to be a freeze and react). The mouse is still alive, but I'm not able to switch to another terminal. Some tells that it i possible to connect to the host via ssh and kill xorg to get out of the freeze. -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 117651] Re: ubuntu randomly freezes
Am using a clean install of kubuntu 7.04 (today) (June 4th 2007), after a year of 6.06 kubuntu with no problems. Suddenly today, several freezes. Only firefox has been installed aferr full new install and updates. (firefox is not being used wwhen freezes have occurred). Wired ethernet only, The only unusual thing I can I note about this machine today is - when running apparently ok, and ctrl alt backspace used (as a test) then the xserver does not re start and offer a new login, although I can then use crtl F1 to get terminal and shutdown. lsmod as follows (hth) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsmod Module Size Used by rfcomm 40856 0 l2cap 25728 5 rfcomm bluetooth 55908 4 rfcomm,l2cap ppdev 10116 0 speedstep_lib 6148 0 cpufreq_stats 7360 0 cpufreq_userspace 5408 0 cpufreq_conservative 8200 0 cpufreq_powersave 2688 0 cpufreq_ondemand9228 0 freq_table 5792 2 cpufreq_stats,cpufreq_ondemand tc1100_wmi 8068 0 dev_acpi 12292 0 pcc_acpi 13184 0 sony_acpi 6284 0 battery10756 0 ac 6020 0 button 8720 0 video 16388 0 sbs15652 0 container 5248 0 dock 10268 0 asus_acpi 17308 0 i2c_ec 6016 1 sbs backlight 7040 1 asus_acpi ext2 66824 1 reiserfs 247680 3 ipv6 268960 8 lp 12452 0 fuse 46612 0 snd_intel8x0 34332 4 snd_ac97_codec 98464 1 snd_intel8x0 ac97_bus3200 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm_oss44544 0 snd_mixer_oss 17408 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm79876 4 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_seq_dummy 4740 0 snd_seq_oss32896 0 snd_seq_midi9600 0 snd_rawmidi25472 1 snd_seq_midi snd_seq_midi_event 8448 2 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi parport_pc 36388 1 parport36936 3 ppdev,lp,parport_pc snd_seq52592 6 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_m idi_event snd_timer 23684 3 snd_pcm,snd_seq snd_seq_device 9100 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmi di,snd_seq serio_raw 7940 0 iTCO_wdt 11812 0 iTCO_vendor_support 4868 1 iTCO_wdt i2c_i8106276 0 pcspkr 4224 0 psmouse38920 0 i2c_algo_bit8712 1 i2c_i810 snd54020 16 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mix er_oss,snd_pcm,snd_seq_oss,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device soundcore 8672 1 snd snd_page_alloc 10888 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm intel_agp 25244 1 agpgart35400 1 intel_agp i2c_core 22656 3 i2c_ec,i2c_i810,i2c_algo_bit shpchp 34324 0 pci_hotplug32576 1 shpchp af_packet 23816 4 tsdev 8768 0 evdev 11008 3 ext3 133128 1 jbd59816 1 ext3 mbcache 9604 2 ext2,ext3 ide_cd 32672 0 cdrom 37664 1 ide_cd ide_disk 17024 9 ata_generic 9092 0 libata125720 1 ata_generic scsi_mod 142348 1 libata generic 5124 0 [permanent] usbhid 26592 0 hid27392 1 usbhid 8139cp 25088 0 floppy 59524 0 piix 11140 0 [permanent] 8139too27648 0 e100 36232 0 mii 6528 3 8139cp,8139too,e100 ehci_hcd 34188 0 uhci_hcd 25360 0 usbcore 134280 4 usbhid,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd thermal14856 0 processor 31048 1 thermal fan 5636 0 fbcon 42656 0 tileblit3584 1 fbcon font9216 1 fbcon bitblit 6912 1 fbcon softcursor 3200 1 bitblit vesafb 9220 0 capability 5896 0 commoncap 8192 1 capability [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 117651] Re: ubuntu randomly freezes
This sounds very similar to my experience with feisty. I had been using feisty since the middle of January and I think the problem started around kernel version 2.6.20-9. I have not seen the problem after switching back to edgy. I am currently using Fedora 7 test 4, and I don't get any random oopses or crashes here either. So I don't think it is a hardware problem. I filed a bug report about a month ago: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux- source-2.6.20/+bug/108953 This bug also sounds similar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/85500 -- ubuntu randomly freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
