Seth Arnold, as per http://download.lenovo.com/express/ddfm.html an update is available for your BIOS (2.54). If you update to this, does it change anything?
If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags removed: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream ** Tags added: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-v3.11-rc4 ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1207059 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad T530 2359] Specific KVM instances lock my machine Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: With my linux-generic package at 3.8.0.27.45 I had a lockup while running eight KVM instances; the soundcard continued to loop the little tiny sample of audio it was on.

I was watching 'top' at the moment of the hang, and I still had over a gigabyte of cached and over a gigabyte of buffered memory available, so it wasn't as simple as running out of memory.
