I have an Acer Aspire 5610 and since installing Ubuntu 9.10, the computer tends to shutdown by itself while I'm using it. Does this happen to anyone else? I would like to know what's causing this so I can either fix/solve it. I never had this problem on Ubuntu 9.04, 8.10 or 8.04. Checking the system log file viewer hasn't given me any clues to what's causing this. I just know the issue started when I installed 9.10. Any help in solving this problem would be appreciated.

Unfortunately I had a similar problem with another acer model, ensure your bios is up-to-date will most probably fix your prob....

My problem with the random shut downs has been solved. I flashed my bios/rom and hasn't had another problem with this issue.:KS
