A tale of ordinary folk - just users. We have 4 systems running 17.04 - 3 xubuntu and 1 ubuntu. 3 are fine. Now one regularly locks up and has to be manually rebooted. The other 3 are fine. I initially reported against #1687267, (now marked as a duplicate of this) including a crash log.
The desktop that crashes is a 5 year old Dell used by my non-IT partner. This situation is quite impossible for her to tolerate. We have never, ever, had a problem like this before. SHe is now suggesting reverting to Windows, having never had such failures with that (nor have I in the last 10 or more years). Fortunately there was a 16.10 kernel left after upgrading - 4.8.0-51 and by using Grub-customizer I managed to make this the default kernel. Whether it is truly OK with 17.04 I don't know, but so far so good. Having always told my partner to do updates, I now have to tell her not to, because 4.10.0-21 just landed and changed the boot order. If ubuntu (etc) is ever to be a normal desktop of choice for normal users, regular crashes of this nature have to be fixed ASAP. This one is now almost 2 months old. I've tripped over similar crash reports not (yet) marked as a duplicate (eg #1686727) and this problem may be even more widespread than people realise. -- 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/1674838 Title: kernel BUG at /build/linux- 7LGLH_/linux-4.10.0/include/linux/swapops.h:129 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in linux-hwe-edge package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Zesty: Fix Committed Status in linux-hwe-edge source package in Zesty: Fix Committed Bug description: Randomly, khugepaged process will take 100% CPU, and I can only restart the computer to recover it.
