I used the following command I found over a forum, It seems to be helpful, I have tried this and would share if it works or not...
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-core-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-video- all-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-vivid libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts- vivid I am not an expert and doesn't exactly know what it does, however, I do know that in my case this upgraded my kernel from 3.13 series to 3.19 series. I am hopeful that the crashes would stop as they were a kernel problem, anyhow, I would tell if it works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to powerd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1457101 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with kernel 3.13.0-53 crashes Status in Ubuntu One Infrastructure: New Status in powerd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After two last updates (I remember second one was also a kernel update) my Ubuntu has started sudden crashing, either desktop view freezes, sometimes sound which was played goes to fast circuit. Sometimes it crashes to full terminal screen, reporting kernel panic mode. I'm sorry I dont know how to find these crash reports from my Ubuntu, hope you can advice me. After crash, only thing possible is to reset my laptop manually. Ubuntu has also started to inform internal failure with powerd, and asks to report them to developers. I think I have send that report three times now.
