Update from me (feel free to request more date if needed) I thought I avoided the freezing by removing my nvidia card, the system has worked OK for a wile now. But now after chaning the driver to my internal AMD X1250 card to the fglrx driver I got back to old issue connected with the 4GB ram.. did a lot of testing back and forth... got kernel errors and error saing something like CPU0 locked/freexed process 1234 for 11 sec (just before the whole system froze).
Then I removed 2GB (leaving 2GB on the system). Everyting worked great again... no change to any drivers or anything. I would bet that the system would now also accept my nvidia card without problems. My conclution (or thougt) is that the issue is that something in the system (kernel, or a module??) does not handle 4GB RAm in a correct way. ( I did test with a diffrent disk (installing XP on it) and the system ran just fine (with 4GB ram). Reminder my issues started when moving from 1GB to 4 GB... Feels wrong to have a 2GB of RAM on the table.. not on the system... -- gutsy amd64 freeze crash lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157777 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
