Full Version: LL freezes up sometimes

Not sure if this is in the right place. The problem is that LL freezes up from time to time. It happens during writing emails, or writing on a forum, facebook or using LibreOffice Calc. Only option is a hard reboot by pressing the power button, the system doesnt unfreeze itself. Yesterday i did ran a memory check during boot and it did not find any errors. Last time it did freeze was this morning. The laptop is a dual boot and i only have the problems on LL. I dont know what to do to fix the problem. I already reinstalled LL but still it freezes from time to time.
When it happens again, consider trying Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then Ctrl-Alt-F7.

Thank you. Had a freeze yesterday evening and this morning and Using both after each other brought the laptop back to life.

It doesn't tend to happen to me when I'm using a mouse.  I seem to recall it happening when my touchpad is in use.  Perhaps I'm using the touchpad and the keyboard at the same time and a special combination of that causes the freeze.  So I unfreeze it by leaving the desktop environment and bringing it back with the key combinations I shared with you.
