Baskak, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags removed: kernel-request-3.0.0-11.18 ** Tags added: bot-stop-nagging latest-bios ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- 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/851051 Title: system hangs or "clogs" due to possible "out of memory killer" malfunction Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: observed many times and not oneiric-specific, but ubuntu-specific since some time ago. typical occurence: system unresponsive after being left running (idle) overnight. also: system getting more and more slow and choppy throughout use. user "drussell" on #ubuntu-bugs says: "baskak: ahh that's bad.... // baskak: the out of memory killer is firing, and killing stuff off to try and save the system // baskak: the most I can suggest for now is raising a bug explaining what's going on, and attaching that log file" the log file will be attached below. regarding testing against latest upstream mainline kernel, it seems bit to complicated to me...
