Hi,

thanks for reporting this bug. Based on the attached logfiles it looks
like apparmor refused mysql read access to a /sys file it expected to be
able to read. However, you say "suddenly the kernel seems like stuck and
hang" which would sound much more serious. Can you please confirm whether
or not you are able to log into the machine?

So long as you can log into the machine, we can confirm whether there is
any other problem by temporarily disabling apparmor for mysql, by doing:

    cd /etc/apparmor.d/disable
    ln -s ../usr.sbin.mysqld
    service apparmor restart
    service mysql restart

and seeing whether mysql is now able to start.

Serge, that AppArmor message is a different issue and should be innocuous.

I'm actually wondering whether it's a graphics card issue. If you switch to VESA
driver, do you still get the hangs? (Please let us know if you need help figuring
out how to try that)
