not so random lockups on AMDx64 / clean install 7.10

[Jaakan Shorter]

I did a clean in of 7.10 x64 this afternoon on a 160gb hd, added apache2, php5, mysql.

the last lock up I was playing a podcast on Rhythmbox, iming someone with pidgin and i opened youtube - flash player installed

Athlon64 2800+
VIA K8M800
512MB
Nvidia GF 6200 LE AGP 256MB
160GB Western Digital EIDE
160GB Maxtor USB
CDRW
DVD-rom

turned off powernowd and that didn't help

I found these in /var/log/messages

[Jaakan Shorter (jaakanshorter)]

I reinstalled everything that started with python, which seemed to help, fingers crossed but I'm not sure this totally fixed it.

[Jaakan Shorter (jaakanshorter)]

it's I/O related? kernel + bios?

like the Harddrive is stop and restarted, the othe harddrive did that too but it never locked up the pc.

[Jaakan Shorter (jaakanshorter)]

I just update my bios today to see if it would fix my issue, it fixed other things. ( quiet n cool, now working correctly )

in my case:
1: it seems like my harddrive was put to low powered mode or part of the IO sub system was put to sleep
2: programs needing to write to a file or open a new file stale
3. the system will seem to fully lock up.
4. I'll have to hard boot it

I have the eye candy off, USB emulation ( bios settings ) only on for KB/MS, NV-GLX-NEW drivers active,
I deleted all the apt-get cached files
I reinstalled all of python, all of X.org, and gdm

I used a boot disc and scanned my harddrive for issues, full media scan and no bad sectors or any issues.

one user says this happens on 7.10 server too.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It isn't quite clear to me from your last comment whether or not your bug is fixed with the BIOS update. Could you please clarify the situation? Additionally, have tried running memtest on your system? Thanks in advance.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]
