Thanks, Murphy. Love your work. 11:2.8.0 froze while using Firefox to compose a Gmail. As usual the mouse cursor remained movable (though stuck in the I-beam shape from the compose window, this time) but no response to clicks or keyboard. The desktop clock didn't update. The top listing on the other computer (in an ssh session to this one) did continue to update. When I quit top and tried "sudo service gdm stop" there was a password prompt, then a ~20 second wait, then a message reading "gdm stop/waiting" but the display on the frozen computer remained frozen. Issuing "sudo reboot" from the ssh session rebooted the frozen computer.
Please, sir, could I have an even older one? -- [i845G] Karmic stops responding a few minutes after log in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/456902 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
