Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: this is a problem with all ubuntu variants and others based on ubuntu (namely linux mint). it exists in 13.04 and 12.10 and if the laptop is pluged into ac power, the laptop will randomly restart. it could be in 30 seconds, or 30 minutes. I have left the laptop to sit, at desktop, come back and opened a terminal and bam! computer restarts. no warning. by accident I had it unplugged one day and it did not restart once. I finally figured out the source of the problem (ac power cord). this problem does not exist with other Linux distributions. Ubuntu and Linux Mint are the only ones with the problem. If I install Ubuntu or Mint and run on battery power, excellent. no crashes of any kind. the problem only exists when ac power charger cable is plugged in. --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: dave 1955 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=abac56ff-271b-49a5-a912-e76be0c26042 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-05-04 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) MachineType: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
