Igor Buess, unfortunately, your comment is too vague, and lacking details to be actionable in any way.
However, if you would like your issue addressed, it will help immensely if you use Ubuntu with the computer the problem is reproducible with and file a new report via a terminal to provide necessary debugging logs: ubuntu-bug linux Please feel free to subscribe me to it. -- 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/1555351 Title: High load freezes ubuntu completely everytime (have to reboot) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Whenever an intensive application runs which consumes lots of memory or hard drive i/o, Ubuntu freezes completely. It is even impossible to kill the offending task. Only "solution" is then to wait for the application to finish, or restart PC. Windows doesn't have this issue as bad as Ubuntu, in that Windows is always somewhat responsive, and you can attempt to kill the intensive application to recover the system.
