SEE : http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/install-boot-logi... kernel will start flashing the capslock LED Ksysguard is frozen in a non overload state CTRL-ALT-Fn as no effect +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #732667 +++ User-Agent: Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; de) Presto/2.9.168 Version/11.52 On my Netbook, an ASUS EeePC 1201T openSUSE freezes randomly. I tried different apps trying to find out which application may cause the freeze. I tried KDE, Gnome, openSUSE 11.4 and 12.1 without any success. Sometimes it runs hours and sometimes only a few minutes. It freezes and I can't do anything except for hard reboot. Alt+Print+B doesn't work, Ctrl+F1 doesn't work either... I checked the Netbook for around 13 hours with memtest86+ without any warning about a broken RAM. I ran the Netbook for almost a day without any problems so I think it might be problem with the Kernel but I'm not sure where to start the search for informations. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Turn on and wait Actual Results: The complete Netbook freezes and I can't do anything. Expected Results: It shouldn't freeze. -- 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.

Dell Studio 1569. This is a complete system freeze. Ctrl+F1 or REISUB are useless. No system logs are recorded for clues as to the crash. Only a hard shutdown/reboot works. Telnet/ssh will not connect for crash dump either.

Have two terminal Windows open and Three Firefox windows all with three or more tabs. In addition have YAST2 control center open and printer configuration in it. Switched to printer configuration window and then back to one of my Firefox windows and the system locked. The mouse cursor went from an arrow to a 'I' and never changed. Could move mouse cursor all around -but- no action from the buttons... and no response from the keyboard. Only result was to hit the Power Off button. Upon restart everything worked OK, in fact all my tabs in Firefox restored themselves. YAST2 stayed closed though. This happens randomly -and- does not seem to have a pattern. I also use VMware and DID NOT have it running this time -but- have had this lockup whilst in VMware inside one of my Virtual Windows. As far as I can tell ...from my experiences... it happens primarily when I switch from one window to another. IF that can be of some help. My System is an HP m7480n with an nVidia 7300 LE. Thanks, Chuck P.S. I, like the others DID NOT have this problem in prior versions of SuSE or openSuSE. -- 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 some of you others experiencing this problem can confirm it. It appears that switching from one window to another is when it gets lost. Some of this indication is because of the mouse cursor. When I have had lock-ups, sometimes the mouse cursor is an Arrow and other times it is the 'I'. This "appears" to be dependent on what you were doing in the window that you left. It seems that the switch doesn't get completed. Perhaps there is a stack overflow or something like that. I'm not sure how to detect just what is happening. IF anyone has any suggestions I will try them. My System is an HP m7480n with an nVidia 7300 LE... with openSuSE 12.1 KDE 4.8.

In order to fix this issue we first have to narrow down what is going on. In order to do this I suggest three possibilities to capture some logs at the time of the panic: 1) configure a serial console This requires a serial port (not a usb adapter type) on the affected machine, a second machine with a serial port (usb or not) and a null modem cable 2) configure netconsole This requires a wired network connection on the affected machine and a second machine on which you can run ex. netcat. 3) configure kdump This only requires configuring some extra packages. As root, run # zypper install yast2-kdump # yast2 kdump pick Enable kdump in "Dump filtering" uncheck everything, this will reduce the size of the dump file You can find some information about configuring kdump here: http://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/html/openSUSE/opensuse-tuning/cha.tuni... Reboot. The next time there is a kernel panic, kdump will create a dump of the system memory and store it in a subfolder of /var/crash (in the default configuration). The screen may be garbled while the dump is taking place and it may take a few minutes; the machine will restart automatically after it is done. Once rebooted, tar-up the newly created folder (found under /var/crash), give the archive a significant name, upload it to ftp.novell.com/incomming and leave a comment in this bug entry with the name of the file. # cd /var/crash # tar -jcf bnc738547-kdump-2012-03-27-11-39.tar.bz2 2012-03-27-11\:39/ # ftp -u ftp://ftp.novell.com/incoming/ bnc738547-kdump-2012-03-27-11-39.tar.bz2 This ftp has write-access only from the outside. Only people within SUSE will be able to access your kdump. -- 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 have stumbled upon several freezes of my opensuse 12.1 installation. I followed your instructions and uploaded a crashdump from kdump in novell ftp server. Hope it helps and let us know if you get somewhere. For the record my symptoms are a complete freeze no mouse or keyboard activity so hard restart is the only option. System works fine before freeze. Some extra info in case you want me to add something in terms of hardware details. I have an nvidia 7600 GS video card (driver 295.49) running twinview with two monitors. I also use sunergy+ from another machine to control the opensuse box although freezing takes place both with and without synergy+ client running. thanks Evans -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=737834 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=737834#c16 --- Comment #16 from Evans Mazomenos <emazomenos@aol.com> 2012-06-18 11:28:57 UTC --- Dear Benjamin, Thanks for your prompt response and your time to look into this. The problem persists after upgrading to kernel 3.4.2-28 from tumbleweed and using the nvidia 295.59 downlowded and installed by nvidia since the opensuse nvidia repository has not updated the driver for kernel 3.4. The problem is here since i am having what appears to be kernel panics, although less frequent than with 3.1 kernel, to this day. If anyone experiences this (freezing machine and keyboard leds blinking) i guess is safe to say that please check you nvidia driver installation. One last hint to that could be of some help; in my case i predominantly experience freezes in GNOME 3 and its derivative cinnamon, i am not having many freezes with KDE 4.8. Lets hope that this will be resolved soon either from nvidia or from opensuse.
