Can you elaborate more on the freeze part? Does the system completely freezes and it never recovers or is it a temporary freeze (until the copy completes)?
How much RAM do you have in your system? Can you check if the following helps to mitigate the problem? $ echo $((32 * 1024 * 1024)) | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/dirty_bytes $ echo $((16 * 1024 * 1024)) | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_bytes Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-meta-lowlatency in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2058165 Title: System freeze on copy large files on usb Status in linux-meta-lowlatency package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Everytime i create/copy/move a large file >15GB on a usb the system freezes ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 24.04 Package: linux-image-lowlatency 6.8.0-7.7.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.8.0-7.7.1-lowlatency 6.8.0-rc3 Uname: Linux 6.8.0-7-lowlatency x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.28.0-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Sun Mar 17 18:55:31 2024 InstallationDate: Installed on 2024-03-10 (7 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Studio 24.04 LTS "Noble Numbat" - Daily amd64 (20240308) SourcePackage: linux-meta-lowlatency UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta-lowlatency/+bug/2058165/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
