I have been experiencing for the last few weeks, complete system freezes at random times, on an up-to date GUTSY system.
Trying the engadget site, I have had a lockup after roughly a minute. This seems to be firefox/gecko related, as I can confirm that these hangs always occur when firefox is running. However, FF does not need to be in the foreground for this to happen. I have had freezes/hangs when doing the following: - scrolling a page using either a mouse wheel, the scrollbars & clicks, or my touchpad (this is a laptop) - Opening a Firefox menu - Having the mouse move over a background firefox window. In all cases, the keyboard is totally unresponsive, even the laptop-specific Fn+ keys do not respond. ssh sessions are locked, new ssh connections cannot happen, and the box does not respond to a ping. I have reprodiced this on both a wired/wireless network connection, with&without compiz enabled (only "normal" effects). Unfortunately, there is no kernel stack trace whatsoever, or any trace of an error in any log file. -- System freezes (possibly Gecko) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
