Repetative problem, Random connectivity

[Joel Chosta]

This is a reoccurring problem. I run debug and then go to report with attached files and afterwards the problem temporarily clears out. It reoccurs upon subsequent log in and restart of computer. It also clears sometimes upon restart of system. It is a bug true to it's nature and nagging reoccurrence. Please provide a solution or debug program to cure this ill bug. Thank You J. Chosta

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It sounds like some part of the system has crashed. To help us find the cause of the crash please follow these steps:

1. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run:
    ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash
Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug.

2. If step 1 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where ID is the content of file /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id on the machine. Do you find any links to recent problems on that page? If so then please send the links to us.

3. If step 2 also failed then apply the workaround from bug 994921, reboot, reproduce the crash, and retry step 1.

Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security risk for yourself.
