2.5GB of memory, fairly high disk used (~85%), I can reproduce nearly at will.
The bisect I performed above may have only found a patch that makes things significantly worse: when running a kernel from the 'good' side of the bisect I still get occasional lockups (on the order of 2-4 days), compared to minutes otherwise. It almost seems that in that case, concurrent activity is a necessary case: firefox's periodic session saving (rewriting a 400kb file), starting audio playback, running a gnome-shell build with io at idle priority, and installing a package was the triggering state the last time I had a 'good' kernel lock up. -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 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
