Public bug reported: Hi, first of all I know this is not new with the NVIDIA proprietary graphics driver, but this is different than the usual, and let me explain why
The machine that experienced this issue has an SSH connection opened, and during the lockup, I'm not able to login, neither sysrq-keys are working, and checking the dmesg log at the reboot didn't give any error output than the usual Basically, the overall desktop freezes, doesn't seem display driver related, because in this case I'm able to login via SSH and check the dmesg, which gives some NVRM errors. Before the lockup the only thing I heard was the CPU and case fan spinning up a bit. To be clear, I'm not new to this lockups at all, some are coming from the NVIDIA driver crashing, other times like this one look totally different. The reproduceability is completely random, happened twice since the start of the month. My workflow is still the same, some common apps I have installed I use frequently are: Discord, Firefox, Lutris with some wine games, Steam, Steam Games, Telegram, Spotify, Olive-Editor, KDEnlive. I'm running Ubuntu 19.04, the machine has an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 CPU, GTX NVIDIA 1060 3GB, 2x4GB dual channel DDR4 HyperX RAM, Crucial MX 500 SSD, MSI b350m mortar motherboard. The other time that happened, always not NVIDIA-driver related (or so I think) the only thing different from that the dmesg log from /var/log/kern.log, were just a bunch of "@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@" characters printed in before the next PC startup. No NVIDIA mentions, looks like a normal dmesg without any errors except this. Still, even in that occasion, sysrq keys or SSH access was not working, instead, I repeat, when the NVIDIA driver crashes I'm able to do that. I don't know if that's related to some kernel panic, I'll be sure to install kdump in the future ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Hi, first of all I know this is not new with the NVIDIA proprietary graphics driver, but this is different than the usual, and let me explain why The machine that experienced this issue has an SSH connection opened, and during the lockup, I'm not able to login, neither sysrq-keys are working, and checking the dmesg log at the reboot didn't give any error output than the usual Basically, the overall desktop freezes, doesn't seem display driver related, because in this case I'm able to login via SSH and check the dmesg, which gives some NVRM errors.
