christophevr may onto something. At the time of freezing (before I switched to fedora) I was noticing that idle IO was jumping to 100%. At the same time my disk was quiet meaning it wasn't disk IO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to

This already cost me $200 to purchase new hard drives. Every time I hard-reset the machine my bad sector count climbs up and both SATA drives are reporting "IMMINENT FAILURE" status. Desktop Ubuntu is becoming a joke. Is there a way to send a link to this bug to Mark Shuttleworth? -- You received

Both of my hard drives in RAID 1 (mirror) started failing. I suspect because I had to frequently hard-reset the machine :( My freezes stopped (hopefully) after I uninstalled VirtualBox downloaded from the Oracle web-site and installed the one from the standard Ubuntu repository. -- You received

I thought I found a safe shelter with Xubuntu but after almost a week of uptime XFCE froze. So far I've tried Unity 3D, 2D and XFCE (installed from scratch) and all of them freeze. I tried kernels 3.3.x and 3.4.x with no obvious siccess. Dell XPS Studio 8100, i7 860 (Lynnfield Nehalem), nVidia GeF

Running XFCE installed from scratch (as Xubuntu) and so far no freezes. No other solutions (new kernels, upgrading xorg, using 2D vs 3D) above worked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bug

Ok, my XFCE at home freezes too. But at the office with exactly the same hardware it doesn't freeze. And the difference is that the one that doesn't freeze was a clean Xubuntu 12.04 install while the one that freezes was a regular Ubuntu upgrade from Oneiric. -- You received this bug notification

I have Nehalem Lynnfield i7 860 + nvidia GeForce GT 220. My freezes occur when running either Unity 3D or 2D (64amd). Freezes persist after upgrading to 3.3.6, 3.3.7 and 3.4. Originally I was suspecting different culprit applications e.g. Chrome, VirtualBox, Eclipse IDE, Totem player, etc but lat

Freezes when using google-earth? That's interesting because I noticed freezes when I use google chrome browser.

I share the feelings with #188. It feels like something gone bad with Canonical bug support. The Importance = Undecided, Status = Fix Released and it is not assigned to anyone.

The problem seems to be with Unity 3D. I run XFCE at the office and it doesn't freeze. The one at home runs Unity 3D + compiz and it keeps freezing. Both computers have very similar hardware, i7, nVidia, RAID0, etc. I just can't accept that the LTS release quality is so low. I wonder how stable 1

I was wrong. Upgrading to 3.3.7 DIDN'T fixed it for me. Another freeze. Coincidentally I was using VirtualBox at that time. It looks to me like an IO lock-up. I noticed that it doesn't freeze completely immediately. It takes a few minutes before the total freeze. For some time the exiting windows

How come this bug is still "Unassigned". I am loosing my faith in Ubuntu. Ubuntu build quality has been declining. I started with 8.04 and every other update was regretful for me. 12.04 is the worst so far. I'll try 3.4 kernel but otherwise considering joining Fedora camp. -- You received this bu

Same here. I have GeForce GT 220. My whole desktop freezes every other day. It locks the whole X - keyboard, mouse, the image freezes and stays on the screen. It is impossible to do anything from the local console. The best thing I can do is to SSH from my laptop and do "service gdm restart". --
