** Description changed: - My computer freezes very, very frequently. I'm using 12.04.02 (32bit, - though my computer supports 64 bit, but I had freezes with that too), - I've had the same trouble on 12.04.01 and 12.10. I've used kernels 3.2, - 3.5 and 3.8, all still have freezing. I'm not sure how to identify the - package causing the freezing, but not for a lack of trying. If anyone - has any idea, I will cheerfully supply whatever info you need. It's - been close to two months I think. :P + My laptop computer freezes very, very frequently.

It can happen anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours after a boot. Usually while browsing, but that's because I'm usually browsing I think. The only thing I can do is a hard reset. I have tried to ssh into my computer from my wife's, but it is impossible while frozen (note, it IS possible when my computer is not frozen, so from what I have read, this indicates my error is not a GPU hang, correct me if I am wrong :) ) Memtest shows no errors (memtest would not run, except for from a live usb, but I got it covered. No errors). Happens in unity 2d and unity 3d, guessing it's not compiz. Also, if I don't log in to x and just go straight to console, I still get freezes. I can't win. No proprietary drivers either. My computer is kept dust free, it is not overheating. As per another report, I tried noapic and nomodeset, to no avail. acpi=off too. :P acpi_apic_instance=2 did not work better either. From my reading, I've been looking into this, but to no avail: joe@Sutarmekeg:~$ sudo grep -i bug /var/log/syslog Mar 12 09:09:04 Sutarmekeg kernel: [ 0.000000] ACPI: BIOS bug: multiple APIC/MADT found, using 0 Mar 12 09:09:04 Sutarmekeg kernel: [ 0.098980] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored Mar 12 09:09:04 Sutarmekeg kernel: [ 0.125307] PCI: Using host bridge windows from ACPI; if necessary, use "pci=nocrs" and report a bug Mar 12 09:09:04 Sutarmekeg kernel: [ 0.486860] ehci_hcd 0000:00:1a.7: debug port 1 Mar 12 09:09:04 Sutarmekeg kernel: [ 0.500356] ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.7: debug port 1 Mar 12 09:09:04 Sutarmekeg NetworkManager[746]: <info> Loaded plugin ifupdown: (C) 2008 Canonical Ltd.
