I also appear to be a victim of this problem. I am running Ubuntu 11.10 kernel 3.0 on a Dell Latitude e6400 laptop. The system works fine when running out of my docking station but when it is docked it will freeze as described above anything from 2 minutes to 3 hours. I seldom get more than 10 minutes usage before it needs a hard reset. It also runs fine under Ubuntu 10.10 - either docked or undocked.
I had 'assumed' that the problem was down to running multiple monitors and the custom Nvidia driver but now I may look into disabling the on board network (which is not present when un-docked) following the discussion above. Please let me know if I can help to narrow this down. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/908335 Title: Kernel Hard Freezing Very Often To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/908335/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
