I'm running the latest BIOS update (A06) on a Vostro v130, and it randomly freezes. It makes it through installation, but will randomly and completely freeze when under high load. It appears to lock up under high load even when the Atheros network card is disabled via the hardware switch.
Running under 10.04 did not have these issues; it never locked up even under high load. The full steps to reproduce, and the associated symptoms: 1) Start the system, log in to Unity. 2) Put the system under heavy IO load. I've done this using rsync via both the WiFi interface and the wired ethernet interface (the latter with both the WiFi interface active and inactve). 3) After anywhere from five minutes to an hour, the system completely freezes. It is not possible to switch virtual terminals, the system does not respond to any network traffic (ping, SSH), and it is completely unresponsive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/767795 Title: [Vostro 130] Installation freezes -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
