Currently on kernel 3.9.4-030904-generic and I just had this lockup again. Is there anything else I can try, debug info I can give?
The last lines in syslog before the fresh boot are Dec 3 21:27:19 segnus kernel: [ 787.909643] audit_printk_skb: 27 callbacks suppressed Dec 3 21:27:19 segnus kernel: [ 787.909654] type=1400 audit(1386134839.709:27): apparmor="DENIED" operation="capable" parent=1 profile="/usr/sbin/cupsd" pid=982 comm="cupsd" pid=982 comm="cupsd" capability=36 capname="block_suspend" but I don't know the timings -- that could have been a good few minutes before the lockup. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => New -- 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/1176458 Title: Total system lockup on power cable connect/disconnect Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I've had this issue for six months or more, though it is fairly infrequent. My laptop (Dell Latitude E4300) will lock up entirely (keyboard and mouse not functioning, not responding to pings or sshd, I'm left with whatever image was last on the screen, frozen) sometimes when the power cable is plugged in or unplugged. I'd say it's maybe 1 in 15 times, but today it happened twice in a row and so it's finally time to try to solve it. I have to hold down the power button to power down and reboot when this happens, sometimes losing some work. I'm not sure if my kern.log is being uploaded with this (I'll add it afterwards if I don't see it) but the last two restarts were both manual because of such lockups. I don't see any useful errors before the first [0.00000] lines (May 4, 17:25:41 and 17:27:12), though. I googled around and one suggestion was to remove the jupiter package. That was not installed. I'm not sure where to go from here given that there's nothing useful I can find in the error logs.
