Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1611191] Re: Xorg freeze

[Yuan Song]

Thanks for looking into this issue.
I updated bios.  I upgraded the bios.  It became better.   But problem still 
exists. It does not happen frequently. It can recovery by itself after a couple 
of minutes   I doubt it is related to bios.    It became better because I 
changed the java heap size.  It is easy to reproduce when I have chrome running 
at the same time.  gui freezes when the java program starts.  After the program 
starts, the gui response is not fast.  The version of Java I am using is 
jdk1.8.0_102.   If I run the same java program on 64 bits windows 7 on the same 
machine with the same heap size setting, it runs a lot faster.

sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

 Yuan Song, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

As per http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H170M%20Pro4/?cat=Download=BIOS
an update to your computer's buggy, insecure, and outdated BIOS is
available (2.20). When you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate how does this improve the
situation?

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

Also, you don't have to create a new report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an 
apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on how this improves the 
situation.
3) Please mark this report Status New.

If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your help.
