@ openmissoula and Martin Polden. I completely lost my faith in Ubuntu- bug fixing. I'm back running 11.10, but I'm seriously considering to switch to either another distro (Opensuse or Fedora perhaps) or even worse, back to Windows. Yes Windows! Windows 7 isn't bad at all: it does at least not crash several times a day like Ubuntu 12.04 now does and even my built in bluetooth would work on my laptop (something that Ubuntu fails to do even my laptop is almost 4 years old).
The bug is not only Ivy bridge related, but surely related to laptops with integrated graphics using shared memory. And there ought to be lots and lots of those systems out there. How many of us still run normal desktops? So there must be lots of users that have this problem or potential users that would run into trouble when trying Ubuntu 12.04. Very unfortunate while Ubuntu gets more and more (positive) reviews in the press. A big bug like this could kill Ubuntu! I can't see why no one seems to be interested in this bug at canonical? What's going on? Did they forget about stability and that with an LTS release?!!! Bug heat is now over 400 and no one seems to bother(unassigned/ no importance set yet)! I even reported this to OMG-ubuntu and other Ubuntu friendly websites, but they even don't react! It seems the whole Ubuntu world is in denial mode somehow. Perhaps I should try ZD net? For me it's clear now that fast bug fixing is also not happening in the Linux world, although many Linux users (including myself) used this as an argument against the Redmond OS, as well as it's stability. With 12.04 both doesn't seem to apply. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993187 Title: ubuntu 12.04 completely freezes frequently To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/993187/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
