A few additional debugging bits: - Here this typically happens when watching video. As if some memory region gets exhausted after viewing some 100'000 frames.
- I've seen the mouse freezing once, typically it stays movable. - Audio continues while video freezes. - I've seen Firefox going <defunct> (in that short time between the first application freezing and everything else freezing, too). - With everything frozen, no login via SSH possible. PC simply doesn't answer over Ethernet. Switching to another console (ctrl-alt-F1) isn't possible, either. - Judging by CPU fan noise, one core (of two) typically gets 100% load. I just installed the 4.10.0.19 kernel I found in the regular package repo and will report back how long it works without freeze. My freeze experience so far was with 4.10.0.20. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1684010 Title: 17.04, i915 freeze on VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v2/3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Just freezes all unity and/or X.
