** Description changed: - My laptop computer freezes very, very frequently. I'm using 12.04.02 32 - bit. Fresh install of 12.04 64 bit and 12.10 32 bit also freeze. I've - used kernels 3.2, 3.5, 3.8 and 3.9, as well as 2.6 and 3.0, for good - measure. Linux Mint also freezes. Fedora also freezes. All have this - random freeze. If anyone has any idea, I will cheerfully supply whatever - info you need. It's been months now. - - I swear that I did not have this problem when I first got this computer - (second hand in August 2012) but seems to have come up after. But I - have no idea what update has caused the trouble as I have tried several - different kernels. - - Steps to reproduce: Boot up computer, wait a few minutes. + Steps to reproduce: Boot up computer, wait a few minutes, and it freezes. Fresh install of 12.04 64 bit and 12.10 32 bit also freeze. I've used kernels 3.2, 3.5, 3.8, 3.9, 2.6 and 3.0, Fedora also freezes. Oddly, it DOES NOT FREEZE if I am doing something processor intensive, like ripping a DVD or converting video. So whenever I boot up my computer, I have to immediately start ripping. I have tried to ssh into my computer from my wife's, but it is impossible while frozen note, it IS possible when my computer is not frozen. + Memtest shows no errors after running it all night. fsck shows nothing. Happens in unity 2d and unity 3d, guessing it's not compiz. Steps to resolve: Hold down the power button. - What happens next: Boot up the computer, wait a few minutes. Then it - happens again. - - Oddly, it DOES NOT FREEZE if I am doing something processor intensive, - like ripping a DVD or converting video. So whenever I boot up my - computer, I have to immediately start ripping. A bit of a pain. - - When it freezes, the keys do not respond at all, opening another tty or - using REISUB completely unpossible. - - It usually happens within ten minutes, it seems to have gotten worse. - - The only thing I can do is a hard reset. - - I have tried to ssh into my computer from my wife's, but it is - impossible while frozen (note, it IS possible when my computer is not - frozen, so from what I have read, this indicates my error is not a GPU - hang, correct me if I am wrong :) ) - - Memtest shows no errors after running it all night. - - fsck shows nothing. - - HD seems to be SMART enough :P - - Hard disk is still fine, though I'm sure my frequent hard reset will - shorten its lifespan. - - Happens in unity 2d and unity 3d, guessing it's not compiz. - Also, if I don't log in to x and just go straight to console, I still - get freezes. - - No proprietary drivers either. - - My computer is kept dust free, it is not overheating. - - As per another report, I tried noapic and nomodeset, to no avail. - acpi=off too. :P acpi_apic_instance=2 did not work better either. + get freezes. No proprietary drivers either. My computer is kept dust + free, it is not overheating. I tried noapic, nomodeset, acpi=off, and + acpi_apic_instance=2 did not fix it. Hitting the function button will toggle the light off and on after the freeze, but only in the first few seconds. - I'm not that experienced with linux, but I have suffered with this bug - for months now. Anything from the logs that looks like it might be the - source of the problem I have googled, tried various solutions that - helped other people with similar problems but mine persists. - - Thanks gang. I am a new Ubuntu user and I love it, despite this - grievous problem. + --- + AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.25. + AplayDevices: **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC268 Analog [ALC268 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 + ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.1 + Architecture: i386 + ArecordDevices: **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC268 Analog [ALC268 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: joe 1879 F.... pulseaudio + Card0.Amixer.info: + Card hw:0 'Intel'/'HDA Intel at 0xf5300000 irq 48' + Mixer name : 'Realtek ALC268' + Components : 'HDA:10ec0268,1179ff14,00100003' + Controls : 16 + Simple ctrls : 8 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=a1b89f10-2faf-41a1-b79b-6b4a9be132ab + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20130213) + MachineType: TOSHIBA dynabook TX/66E + MarkForUpload: True + Package: linux (not installed) + PccardctlIdent: Socket 0: no product info available PccardctlStatus: Socket 0: no card + ProcEnviron: + TERM=xterm + PATH=(custom, no user) + LANG=en_US.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb + ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-25-generic root=UUID=6287f357-a116-4714-a16b-65562f25df92 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-25.39~precise1-generic 3.5.7.4 + RelatedPackageVersions: + linux-restricted-modules-3.5.0-25-generic N/A + linux-backports-modules-3.5.0-25-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.79.1 + RfKill: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no Tags: precise running-unity + Uname: Linux 3.5.0-25-generic i686 + UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) + UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo + dmi.bios.date: 01/31/2008 + dmi.bios.vendor: Phoenix Technologies LTD + dmi.bios.version: 2.00 + dmi.board.name: SANTA ROSA CRB + dmi.board.vendor: Intel Corporation + dmi.board.version: Not Applicable + dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag + dmi.chassis.type: 1 + dmi.chassis.vendor: No Enclosure + dmi.chassis.version: N/A + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnPhoenixTechnologiesLTD:bvr2.00:bd01/31/2008:svnTOSHIBA:pndynabookTX/66E:pvrPATX66ELP:rvnIntelCorporation:rnSANTAROSACRB:rvrNotApplicable:cvnNoEnclosure:ct1:cvrN/A: + dmi.product.name: dynabook TX/66E + dmi.product.version: PATX66ELP + dmi.sys.vendor: TOSHIBA
