2007-10-01 05:02:49 Jonathan Strander description Simply downloading a torrent at high speed (speed caps mitigate this somewhat) or transferring large files at high data rates over a network (for instance transfering files to NFS mounts as some users have reported) for any period of time longer than a few minutes may cause one of two conditions to occur: 1) The system Hard Locks (no i/o response from keyboard or mouse and the display manager freezes) and needs a hard reboot. 2) The network connection freezes, but still identifies itself as having a signal and being connected. The only way I could determine to fix this was to soft-reboot the system. This is basically a complete show-stopper bug as these are common activities. More information: Processor: Athlon XP 2000+ #RAM: 1GB Video: Nvidia Geforce 6600GT using driver 100.14.19 Network: DWL-520+ run using ndiswrapper Kernel: linux-image-rt (linux-image-2.6.22-12-rt) Simply downloading a torrent at high speed (speed caps mitigate this somewhat) or transferring large files at high data rates over a network (for instance transfering files to NFS mounts as some users have reported) for any period of time longer than a few minutes may cause one of two conditions to occur: 1) The system Hard Locks (no i/o response from keyboard or mouse and the display manager freezes) and needs a hard reboot. 2) The network connection freezes, but still identifies itself as having a signal and being connected.

Capping torrent bandwidth will sometimes allow hours of activity of this kind, but normally it's 15 minutes or less. The system can be frozen quickly as a test by simply opening up all available bandwidth and filling it with file transfers/downloads (hence torrents causing the crash). There are three threads (possibly more) on the Gutsy Development forums. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=530107 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=563251 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=563049 It would appear the common factor is wireless networking.
