Attached the syslog for today when the laptop froze 3 or 4 times: syslog_today_with_freezes.log
Like I said, this never happened before today.

Yesterday evening after I left the office it froze again. I see in the syslog up to that freezing moment:

Actually the system freezing BEFORE installing the 4.2 kernel seems to have generated something else in the log up to that freezing moment:

So, before the kernel upgrade (so on kernel 3.19) it froze once with the last message in the log:

rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="7.4.4" x-pid="977" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] exiting on signal 15.

And after kernel upgrade ((so on kernel 4.2), each time it froze I saw in the log as last message before freezing:

kernel: [ 3376.109135] [drm] HPD interrupt storm detected on connector HDMI-A-1: switching from hotplug detection to polling

While the freeze with the "[drm] HPD interrupt..." message happened 4 times yesterday afternoon after installing the 4.2 kernel, this morning (early morning) I reverted to 3.19 kernel and no freezes happened anymore afterwards. So this really looks like a problem with the 4.2 kernel. I will try to move this bug from Xorg to kernel.

After reverting from 4.2 kernel (linux-generic-lts-wily) back to 3.19 kernel (linux-generic-lts-vivid) the freezes stopped.

Indeed, today the system worked fine (no freezing) the whole day after rolling back to kernel 3.19 first thing in the morning, while yesterday afternoon with the 4.2 kernel my laptop froze at least 4 times.

Hi Christopher,

Thank you for your answer. I did update today from BIOS and I will try the 4.2 kernel again, just not today because I had more than enough and unexpected "excitement" for a day with updating the BIOS from Linux...

However, like I said before, when I updated the bios, I just used the command:

sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-wily

Today I saw on the page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes#LTS_Hardware_Enablement_Stack a command that updates a few more packages (Xorg) in addition to the kernel when installing the 4.2 kernel:

sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-wily xserver-xorg-core-lts-wily xserver-xorg-lts-wily xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-wily xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-wily libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-wily

So my question is: is it enough to just try like before only updating the kernel itself, or should I try the command that updates in addition also the Xorg packages?

Thank you.

Sorry, in the above comment I meant to say "when I updated the kernel" instead of "when I updated the bios" before I listed the command

sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-wily

To continue the previous comment here is the output of the requested command:

$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
[sudo] password for ...:

It looks so far that the laptop freezes less frequent than before the BIOS upgrade.

V B, in order to allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue, at your earliest convenience, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D ? Please keep in mind the following:
1) The one to test is at the very top line at the top of the page (not the daily folder).
2) The release names are irrelevant.
3) The folder time stamps aren't indicative of when the kernel actually was released upstream.
4) Install instructions are available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds .

If testing on your main install would be inconvenient, one may:
1) Install Ubuntu to a different partition and then test this there.
2) Backup, or clone the primary install.

If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Where X, and Y are the first two numbers of the kernel version, and Z is the release candidate number if it exists.

If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of kernel-bug-exists-upstream.

Also, you don't need to apport-collect further unless specifically requested to do so.

Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this report Status Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Thank you for your understanding.

I installed yesterday evening

linux-image-4.5.0-040500rc7-generic_4.5.0-040500rc7.201603061830_amd64.deb
linux-headers-4.5.0-040500rc7-generic_4.5.0-040500rc7.201603061830_amd64.deb

and left the laptop on during the night (without suspending) and in the morning was still not frozen. Usually with the 4.2 kernel it would have frozen over night and it have frozen during this morning, but with the 4.5.0-040500rc7 the laptop did not freeze yet.

However, with 4.5.0-040500rc7 I cannot use the proprietary bcmwl driver for my wireless card and the software update does not work properly and while installing the above linux headers package it complained about missing dependencies, howver it did install it.

So I am keen to try a lower version kernel, like v4.4.5-wily hoping that it will still work (no freezes), but t the same time that I may be able perhaps with it to also use the proprietary bcmwl driver and I will hopefully get no software update problems a I get now with 4.5.0-040500rc7.

When I restarted my laptop in order to boot on 3.19 kernel so that I can uninstall the 4.5.0-040500rc7 kernel and install another kernel (like 4.4.5-wily) I got a system freeze: it seemed that it happened right after the system performed the logout. After starting, here is what I see in the syslog:

When I restarted my laptop in order to boot on 3.19 kernel so that I can uninstall the 4.5.0-040500rc7 kernel and install another kernel (like 4.4.5-wily) I got a system freeze: it seemed that it happened right after the system performed the logout. After starting, here is what I see in the syslog:

V B, regarding the mainline kernel test, it may be inconclusive due to you not being able to test all the proprietary software simultaneously.

You may want to try http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ as an alternative environment so you may test all proprietary software, and provide an additional data point.

>"I also wanted to attach the generated /var/crash/_lib_systemd_systemd-logind.0.crash (because I installed and configured the Kernel Crash Dump tool yesterday afternoon), but I get from this web site: ERR_ACCESS_DENIED"

Please do not manually attach crash files to reports, as it is not the preferred work flow. Instead, file it as a new report via a terminal:
sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_lib_systemd_systemd-logind.0.crash

I cannot go to upgrade to that daily image because this is the company's laptop and I have work to do.

What I can tell more than that is that yesterday after lunch I installed the kernel 4.4.5-040405-generic (from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.5-wily/) and that it did not freeze since. In addition, with this kernel I have no problems using the apt to update software (as I was having with 4.5.0-040500rc7), but I could not install the proprietary wireless driver bcmwl-kernel-source for my wireless card (Broadcom Corporation BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter) because "kernel package linux-headers-4.4.5-040405-generic is not supported".

I may go and try an older kernel (but still something above 4.2, like 4.3) hoping that it will not freeze my laptop and that it will work with the bcmwl-kernel-source package. At this point I will move again the bug in status Confirmed, because I cannot give you more info (I cannot go and install the daily image of 16.04).

Changed in linux (Ubuntu):
status:	Incomplete → Confirmed

V B, fair enough. Trusty will get the kernel from Xenial soon as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack . Hence, this may be put on hold until either you get an exception from your company, or the enablement kernel is released for confirmation.

Hi,

Very bad news:

Latest security patch for kernel 3.19.0 (that is 3.19.0-58) which I installed today automatically through updates, freezes my laptop again with the same "HPD interrupt storm detected on connector" error that I was getting with the 4.2 kernel:

Apr 6 14:46:17 xxx-ubuntu dbus[1001]: [system] Activating service name='org.freedesktop.hostname1' (using servicehelper)

At the moment I switched back to kernel 3.19.0-51 that does not cause this problem, but the possibility that from now on all future security patches for 3.19.0 might freeze my laptop sounds very bad.

I have reported the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1567237 for kernel 3.19.0-58 on Ubuntu 14.04 on Dell Inc. XPS 15 9530

Marked this as duplicate of bug #1567237 (instead of the other way around) because I think that it would be probably easier to investigate the problem using the 3.19 series of kernels, because we know 2 consecutive kernel versions in that series, which first worked and second did not: 3.19.0-51 worked, then 3.19.0-58 did not. Also I think is better to focus firstly on the other bug because the other bug is higher importance and I thing that this is needed now, when both 3.19 and 4.2 series of kernels stopped working on my Laptop running Ubuntu 14.04.
