Also occurring on my laptop - Acer Aspire 5560-sb613, AMD A8-3500M with Radeon 6620G. Has occurred on 12.04 through 13.04, both 32 and 64 bit systems. Occurs regardless of whether I'm using FGLRX or the xorg-radeon driver. Can't recall whether it was alleviated by running a 2D desktop. I'll get XFCE installed later and see how that works. Note: I've run at least 6 passes of memtest on this machine, as well as replaced the RAM. No change. Oddly, my desktop is totally bulletproof (AMD FX-63xx, 990FX chipset, NV 650ti). Some guy above mentioned problems connecting to wireless right before the freeze. Could be related? My laptop's always been odd with wifi.

[Bug 996989] Re: Ubuntu 12.04 Freezes Frequently
We have the described problem with several of our machines in the lab. However, some of the machines (identical in hardware to those freezing) did not have the freezing issue. Installing the 3.3.x kernel did not help at all. So, we've started analysing what might be the cause of the problem. At the beginning everything was suggesting that if the RAM was fully loaded and there was an intensive use of the swap the machine would freeze. This was a repeatable experiment, but only for the machines that were freezing in the first place. The only obvious difference in software on those machines was the user of Chromium on those that freezed and Firefox on those that did not. The memory stress tests we've performed where using Chromium with multiple tabs (each tab process consuming ~50Mb). Once we repeated the tests without Chromium and using Firefox instead no freezing occurred! In order to further pinpoint the issue we've used one of our JavaFX applications that utilises WebKit for working with Google Maps and the freezing manifested again. Thus, all our tests point to the cause of the freezing to be related to WebKit engine. Hope this information is useful and someone would be able to repeat the experiments in other settings to confirm the result. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996989 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 Freezes Frequently To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/996989/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 996989] Re: Ubuntu 12.04 Freezes Frequently
On my Acer Laptop 7520 / AMD Turion / 2 Gb Ram/ Nividia graphics w shared mem Ubuntu 12.04 completely freezes: only the mouse cursor keeps moving. Hard reset is the only way out. The problem seems to be related somehow to screen output: if I don't touch my system it keeps running. If I start browsing (lots of rendering) or play videos the system freezes almost instantly. Just running some programs that are less heavy on screen output do eventually cause a freeze, but it definitely takes longer. Nonetheless 12.04 is not suitable for production purposes: several freezes per (working) day is alpha level! I reported this bug earlier under # 993187. Somehow it seems that no developer is willing to pick up this bug. I'ts unclear what package causes these freezes. As freezes appear on a very wide range of systems, it seems to me that is must be in some package that is common on a wide range of machines, so probably not Nvidia drivers or other specific hardware related stuff like Ivy bridge etc. I do not have another system to test Ubuntu 12.04 with. I also have a netbook, but my SSD is too small for installing 12.04 with unity onto it. Does anybody have a second system: does it run there smoothly or not? It seems so widespread that I wonder if it can be reproduced on a wide range of systems. For some it seems that a kernel update (or downgrade) is working. Perhaps it's worthwhile looking into the differences between those kernels in relation to screen output. Which screen related parts have changed? As 11.10 runs very smooth on my system perhaps a comparison between the kernel in 11.10 and 12.04 (just for screen output related parts) would help. I haven't tried Ubuntu 12.04 lately: I need my system for daily work, so I'm back on 11.10. I have tried an alternative kernel before with little effect (freezing occurred less frequent, but still occurred too often). I don't now if my system would run more reliable with other kernels. As I explained before I need my laptop for daily work and don't want to run into trouble again with 12.04. I'm considering to wait for 12.10 and wait until XMas holiday to try it and keep my fingers crossed that the problem will be gone with 12.10. Does anyone who has trouble with 12.04 try 12.10 alpha or beta version yet? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996989 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 Freezes Frequently To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/996989/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 996989] Re: Ubuntu 12.04 Freezes Frequently
After the upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04, there are daily freezes for no apparent reason; One freeze can come after a fresh boot with no open programs - and another freeze can come five hours after working with many programs. There is never a single action, that causes a freeze. To the user, it comes at random. There has not been any problems like this in any version of Ubuntu on the same hardware. Every freeze is a complete lock up of the system with sudden squared garbage all over the screen. Not even the mouse nor keyboard responds. It has not been possible to find any errors, prior to a freeze, in the system log. Could it be related to a background process, such as the encrypted file system option (eCryptfs)? The version of Ubuntu is 32 bit 12.04 LTS. The kernel is 3.2.0-26 -generic-pae. The version of Gnome is 3.4.1. The processor is Intel Core i5-2500 3.30 Ghz x4.

Can't believe this is on invalid! I got an MSI EX600 machine, which I have been using Ubuntu on since 9.10 without major hick-ups. I have _switched_ from Ubuntu to Fedora now, since this bug really makes the system unworkable. There is nothing written in logs when this happens, although I know a way to fully reproduce the crash.

You'll notice that from time to time the browser screen refresh seems to hang just an instant. Continue to scroll up and down. You would be very lucky if the momentary hang doesn't result in a full lock-up after a few occurances. This bug is 100% reproducable.

And yes, the pointer can be moved, but it frequently freezes again. I've had 2 instances where Ubuntu recovered briefly. As to whether or not it happens in Unity 2D, I'm not sure. I rarely use anything but Unity 3D. However, I will see if it does happen in 2D, but, it seems to happen sporadically. I don't really have a procedure to reproduce the conditions; it seems to do it when it feels like it, if that makes ANY sense. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996989 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 Freezes Frequently To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/996989/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Stephen you are using NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 295.40 that is broken, it is already fixed but under testing in these days.

Okay, I switched to the recommended NVIDIA driver, the current version, and so far (knock on wood), Ubuntu hasn't frozen once, and I've been on this session for well over 3 hours.
