Under the assumption that this is related to harddrive (sata) I've tried changing fstab to not use the realtime function, but with no avail. The 2.6.25-7/8 kernels did not contribute to any improvement either.
However there's a major clue (ugly fix), echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/block_dump this triggers repetitive debug writes to disk, thus works like a "keep-alive". The funny thing is that the freezes cease when the block_dump is enabled. If the type of freeze that you experience is akin of mine then this should work. But this is nothing I would recommend. Also, I don't have tested this long enough to be sure, but 1h+ without freeze is sure a great improvement in my case. -- Hardy Freeze/Lockup with kernel 2.6.24-16-generic up to 2.6.24-19-generic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239021 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
