Can you still switch to console with CTRL-ALT-F1? Can you try a different browser?

Yesterday (or this morning already) I entered for verify ctrl+alt+f1. When my suse freezes I can't do anything. I touch ctrl+alt+del, ctrl+alt+f1, I touch power button but I don't see the reaction. So I less my laptop "freezes" for night, for verify at the morning. At morning - the same. This is state from ubuntu, at morning, just after reboot. And it work fine. yukon@yukon-laptop:~$ cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/* <setting not supported> <polling disabled> state: ok temperature: 62 C critical (S5): 100 C -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There is no way to find out what was freezing your system. It may also be hardware related even if it does not happen with other os (different system usage). Therefore I close this bugreport, because we have to focus on fixable problems. You can run a memory test (over night, not just short time). You can try to find something more that could give us a hint. E.g. log in text console instead of X and look if it freezes there as well. If you have more information feel free to reopen this bug report. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There are plenty of examples on the net. I can add the following info: the hard freeze happens only in X, and has nothing to do with overheating. Just to let the computer idling around freezes it within 5 minutes to 2 hours. A strange but confirmed workaround is to plug in any USB device. In my case, a simple memory stick suffice to let the machine go without any freeze. Some combinations of kernels and i810 drivers seem to work on other distributions like gutsy and opensuse 9. I added the relevant xorg.0.log. Hope that helps for further investigation. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I guess Thomas asked you. (corrected NEEDINFO) Reading your description in comment 12, this sounds like a X or kernel issue. Are you sure the complete system is frozen? Or is it just the X server? Or maybe just the input devices are dead? And is it also a Dell Latitude C400 in your case? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Maybe something to do with idle ticks? Does this work with any USB device, or only those that require the kernel to wake up periodically? (Mice have to be polled, USB sticks don't have to, at least if they are not mounted) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

See e.g. this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-782904.html It summarises what I know: - the freeze happens only with X running, even without compiz (plain kde3 session). - Any USB device prevents the freeze, even a simple memory stick. - I don't know whether it is only X killing the input devices, as the computer is not in a network (no ssh-ing). I can't switch terminals or kill X, no input is accepted. I don't have a null modem, sorry. - Yes it is a C400. - I will try acpi=off, will see. - opensuse 11.1 does not contain the i810 driver anymore (at least on the live CD), that is why I chose 11.0. This beast cannot read DVD's (yes, it IS old, but all my gf has) - in the thread mentioned above it is said that ubuntu 8.10 solves this problem, so it might be fixed in X/kernel/whatever already - the EnablePipeA option does not fix the issue, but is supposed to fix the suspend-to-ram problem - I will try the new kernel, please give me a day for that And thanks again for your help, I am a happy suser since 8.1, so it is quite embarassing for me that my gf as a newtimer runs into those problems, and I can't fix it ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I didnot know that without ACPI the journal is written every 5 seconds, or better, I forgot. Whether new kernels work depends on the intel graphics driver, see #18. However, as acpi=off works for now, I agree on closing the bug.
