Bug description:
Since upgrading from 10.10 to 11 every time I use a torrent client my
system completely freezes and nothing works to bring it back other
than a hard reboot. Usually the lights on my keyboard go out but
sometimes they're still on and a Ctrl-Alt-BackSpace or Alt-SysReq-
REISUB etc. do nothing.
I normally use KTorrent so tried upgrading that to the latest version
which didn't help, also I tried downloading a new client qBittorrent
but that didn't help either.
The crash/freeze is very reliable and happens about 1-4 minutes after
turning the client on (with active torrents, if they're all inactive
it seems ok). /var/crashes doesn't have any reports related to the
freeze. If you need any logs to determine what's going on let me know
where to look and I'll add them.
If I don't run any torrent clients then other than some compiz
problems my machine is stable and can happily run all day. Before I
upgraded it was totally stable and never froze - I've not changed any
network or torrent client/router config since then.
Any ideas?
