I'm almost certain this is an ext4 issue. Recently, I was deleting my user account with about 50GB of music and videos before giving my laptop to my dad. My laptop completely froze while deleting everything probably 10 times. This happened whether I was deleting from a TTY or with Nautilus. I eventually started to remove just 1 album at a time.
I've also had a few more freeze ups when evolution was copying an old backup or if it was downloading my entire gmail account (about 1 gig) via imap. I have yet to definitively link these freeze ups to firefox. -- Kernel freezing on both ext3 and ext4, possible criminal is Firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/327509 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
