Also affecting Debian Jessie's stock kernel, 3.16.0-4-amd64. I am running on a Thinkpad T430 with i5-3320M 2.6GHz Ivybridge CPU. Under sustained load, the whole computer will freeze (no ssh, no keyboard inputs, no nothing), within a period of 4 to 4.5 hours.
Using YouTube or running any sort of video media will escalate the problem, however, it can freeze up randomly, between 30 mins to over 6 hours. After compiling kernel 3.15.10 from kernel.org, the issue is gone. This seems to have started only from version 3.16 and onwards. Version 4.2.3, the latest kernel, STILL has not fixed this issue. Intel, please do something about this. Some people might have need for the latest kernel (I do not, at the moment, but I'd rather not stick with an outdated kernel). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1453298 Title: Xubuntu freeze once a day To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1453298/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
