Bug Description
I updated to Ubuntu 12.04 a few weeks ago. Had no problems until today or yesterday. If im listening to music, it will keep playing. However, trying to backup my system, the process was paused and would not run. The upper-right screen displaying sound levels always displays when this happens, the computer freezes, and the screen flickers. The only way to get back to a working system is to continuously shut down until it will run without this occurring.
I am still relatively new to linux, so I am not sure what commands to run to give you the full system info printout. I am running a samsung laptop, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32-bit. I have an Intel® Pentium(R) CPU B950 @ 2.10GHz × 2.
Please email/contact me asap for any further needed info I may provide.
