Freeze copying over 1.5GB

thanks for the script, i ran it from when i started copying, then when the error occured it started giving killed messages.

but here's the file i got.

dmesg does not contain the error. Data that we can gather is not enough to file a bug. I can only say upgrade to the latest kernels as soon as they come and hope this should be fixed soon.

Thanks for trying to help with it anyway.

Update:
I fixed this by forcing a downgrade of the kernel, i am 100% certain it's the new version of the kernel that causes the issue. If i could actually generate any data about it i'd post it up as a bug but as things stand i'm going to have to hope it gets fixed in newer builds.

Found a better fix:
to fix this open up a console and type in

sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.backup

Then
sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

Find the boot settings for your ubuntu ( mine is 'title Ubuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-16-generic')
Add 'acpi=off noacpi' onto the end of the kernel line just below it.

To make this stick through kernel updates:
scroll up the file and find the section beginning: "# additional options to use with the default boot option"
add 'acpi=off noacpi' to the def options line.

This fixed all my issues with ubuntu.

I've fixed this now without having to disable ACPI, i thought i'd come back and post how so that anybody with the same problem will be able to fix it.

Firstly this is a problem with the AMD Phenom. To fix it you have to update your BIOS to the latest version from your motherboard manufacturer and then enable the AMD TBL3 erroneous patch option in advanced CMOS settings.

Login to ubuntu and then everything will work fine.

thank you so much for this fix but unfortunately the bios update did nothing for me. and turing off acpi fixed the issue.
