I got the same problem but a little worse: my whole home partition disappears after the freeze. The only thing i could do is to format it. It doesn't matter if it is a upgrade or fresh install that runs some hours, sometimes if i try to install new packages.
I checked it with fsck, and it found many bad blocks (ext3 and ext4, i tried both), but the corrected files were gone after that.i couldn't even see the partition under a livecd. Gparted showed me a undefined partition. The strange is it only happens with the upgrade to kernel 2.6.28-10 or newer. 2.6.28-9 works fine. After the upgrade the system seems to work but after a while the content of windows (like Nautilus) disappears, only the borders were seen (white, clean box even without the menu bar and buttons) and the configuration folder (in case of Nautilus) "/home /god-mok/.nautilus" disappeared. It happened the same with Firefox, kde and gnome, but not with xchat-gnome. Most programs didn't work and lost it configuration files, but some (like xchat-gnome) did work. I installed on the beta new packages, and than Synaptic told me, that the catch files are defect or it could not write any files because it got no rights. The problem here was the same: the folder disappeared. After that Synaptic wouldn't run (like Firefox or Nautilus). Adept didn't worked and under terminal i get only a abort message because the catch had problems (same as Synaptic) or nothing. Once Nautilus told me something about "nfs folder not available" and than it won't run. I don't use nfs :) My only solution for me is not to upgrade but do normal updates, so i'm stuck at kernel 2.6.28-9. Maybe i should write a bug report of my own... -- kernel freeze in 2.6.28-11 (Dell XPS M1530) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348731 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
