Installed linux-image-2.6.28-14-generic 2.6.28-14.46 from jaunty- proposed. Ran hang.py, and still obtained a soft lockup. Doesn't seem like the update fixes this problem. So I guess Theodore Tso was right in pointing out above that this might not be the correct fix. (Note that for me 2.6.29-02062902 does not have this lockup problem.)
Also, on one machine, obtaining a crash reliably requires running several hang.py in parallel and modifying the script so that each instance uses its own set of file names. @martinm1000: Check that `uname -a` reports kernel version 2.6.28-14. -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
