lucid Freeze

[Ameur Mohammed]

I installed lucid the latest daily build 10-Feb-2010 08:13 699M Desktop CD for 64-bit PC (AMD64) computers, run updates but the system hangs Freeze, can't do anything but pressing the power button to shutdown the computer, after restart boot ok, when u see the mouse nothing else.
I reinstalled the same cd in clean install, but this time tried to work on it without touching apt, no updates. and the same thing happened.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:

apport-collect 519705

This will help us to find and resolve the problem. Bear in mind that you may need to install the python-launchpadlib package from the universe repository. Additionally, when prompted to give apport-collect permissions for Launchpad you will need to give it at least the ability to "Change Non-Private" data as it will be adding information to your bug report. Thanks in advance!

When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's "Help -> Report a Problem" menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.

tried apport-collect 519705 but it says connection error
yes I know about that it's not my connection it's the ISA proxy, yes I did the export command to set proxy for bash, and thats another problem concerning reporting bugs for people behind secured proxy.
update the system today local time/date morning 11-Feb-2010. I did that through recovery mode command line.
But any way here's what is happening after the update:
1- No changes on the problem.
2- Some times it freeze at login screen.
3- Some times it freeze when running gksu nautilus.
4- Every time I run Firefox, change address or type anything in search or just by opening it after few seconds it Freezes the whole system.

[Still needs tested against newer kernel; resetting to Incomplete]

[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.

[Akoley Marc (ekomak)]

i have the same issue lucid freeze at anytime the reasons are different from time to time and have to push the power on/off to reboot

freezing when:

- open folder with video thumbnail preview
- launching gwibber
-openning ubuntuone conf-tool
- sometimes on firefox

i have a ati radeon 2400HD Pro AGP and compiz effect on
using free driver
with latest update of lucid.

everything is smooth when i disable compiz effect.

hope this will be helpfull

[Elie Mélois (eliemelois)]

I've got the exact same issue than Marc. (with an Intel chipset)

It seems to be Compiz related.

[Elie Mélois (eliemelois)]

Well, it's just happened without Compiz activated so...

[Bassu Khan (bashukhan)]

I'm facing the exact same issue. Its Lucid's RC pre-release.
Graphic card is ATI Mobility RADEON HD 4670. And of course its happening with free driver. Propriety is way too slower to have actual Compiz stuff running.

[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

Please don't open other people's bug reports, it's better to file new bug reports.
