Hi everybody,
I upgraded to Lucid a few days ago (from Karmic) and although everything went smoothly, I've been having this problem:
Every now and then, when I'm on FireFox, the whole computer freezes and is unresponsive. The mouse doesn't work, I can't open the terminal, I can't do anything! My only option is to press the restart button on my lapton.
I don't know if this is of any relevance, but I use UbuntuStudio, but have been using the proper Linux Kernel. I only selected the RealTime kernel if I'm working on audio editors, which I haven't done since updating to Lucid.
My laptop is an HP pavilion zv5000. It has an ATI 9000/9100 graphics card, about 768 mp of ram, and a P4 3GHz processor.
Any clues why this might be happening? Has anyone else had this issue?
Thanks everyone,
Alex
