yea... got the same problem as well. Have reported on it many many times. Have even sent an email to Mr. Shuttleworth's assistant (over it - maybe indeed). Fact is, I have been more than happy with Ubuntu ever since my definite migration from windows to 9.10. Thanks to Canonical and its community - sincerely. I did also start making publicity for Canonical's and the community's great efforts!
However, even though all updates went fine, I ran into the problem mentioned here, first on 12.04. My first _clean_ install since 9.10, mind! After rebooting and anxiously looking forward to the new possibilities, it crashed not 10 minutes later - without installing anything additional! Just browsing the web. Hard reset only option. It kept on doing so... I mostly used 11.10 in the mean time, as 12.10 did not fix the problem. 13.04 initially seemed a lot more stable on my machine. But it quickly started to break up as well. Did I really need to back to Windows? I wanted GIMP 2.8 and LibreOffice 4.0! No. Wheezy was released, and, since it was installed about two weeks ago, I have not experienced a single crash - well one, but it was recoverable through PTYx. It is fast, has the latest versions of the programs I wanted to update and it seems rock-solid. Should I put in a Ubuntu background, I might not even notice a difference at all on Gnome3. I switched from Ubuntu to Debian because of necessity, but given Canonical's indifference to these showstopper problems and Debian's stability, I think I will stay... -- 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/linux/+bug/908335/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
