Ubuntu :: Lucid 64x Just Restarts Randomly When Playing Games

Oct 11, 2010

when I start playing some medium-intense game the computer just restarts randomly. I made a lot of search on it and even tested various things. I have been having this system for about a month and the problem appeared just one week ago.I am a big fan of "Spring: TA" and that's the easiest way to reproduce the problem, by playing that game(and the most annoying). The funny thing is that when I just start the game the gpu temperature raises very fast. If after some time the pc doesn't reboot on itself the temperature just gets lower and lower. I was suspicious that the problem had to do with temperature so I made some scripts and logged the temperatures in every instant time.

Ubuntu :: Cairo Dock Restarts Randomly Loosing 50% Of Tray Icon?

Jan 13, 2010

Since I updated twice to the two newest versions (currently, Cairo Dock 2.1.3 beta) it every hour or so it randomly restarts which causes 50% tray icons to go bye bye (especially those of Wine programs). If I want to get them back, I have to restart the computer or at least the program with missing tray icon.Anyone knows why CD restarts or how to get back my missing icons after it does?

Fedora Hardware :: NVIDIA Driver - System Randomly Logs The User Out And / Or Restarts The Session With No Warning

Jan 31, 2011

I've recently installed Fedora 14 (x86_64) on my Alienware m15x laptop which has a NVIDIA GTX 260m onboard. Now I have followed leigh123linux's guide to installing those drivers on F14. The installation is a success and everything seems to be in working order, until the system randomly logs the user out and/or restarts the session with no warning. The screen goes black and the nvidia logo appears and then its back to the login screen again. This can happen many times with no apparent stop insight. This does not happen with the default F14 drivers that come with the installation, I have tried several re installations of the Fedora OS and several re installations of the NVIDIA driver, i still have the same problems.

Ubuntu :: 10.10 - Sound While Playing Games Under WINE

Nov 1, 2010

I am having sound issues while playing some games under WINE. for this I will use World of Warcraft as it has options for different sound engines. The problem is that I will have sound running fine for a while after a fresh reboot. It will seem fine for a good half hour to an hour and then suddenly it will stop. It will still be present in the applications list in sound preferences listed as 'ALSA plug-in [wine-preloader]'. muting/unmuting and adjusting the slider has no effects. Enabling and disabling sound in the game also has no effects. Here is what I have tried thus far to try to remedy it:

tried all of the various sound options in winecfg (some simply don't produce any sound at all on a fresh reboot - OSS, for instance) tried with and without padsp tried the various sound engines in Config.wtf tried WINE from the Ubuntu repositories and the developer's PPA tried lowering the sample rate and the bits per sample in the audio tab of winecfg tried fiddling with the sound preferences applications controls I am not adventurous enough to try to install OSSv4 so that doesn't seem like an option for me. it is important to note that sounds not coming from WINE function as normal even while WINE is producing no sounds.

Ubuntu :: Lucid Desktop Just Randomly Logs Me Off

Mar 6, 2011

So this has been happening a lot lately. My Lucid desktop just randomly logs me off. I notice that when it happens my RAM is usually over 85% in use as cache. Is this normal? When I first turn on my PC cache is most of the time at about 15-20% but that is expected. I was thinking that maybe some program that runs in the background has a major memory leek, which I would expect in C. This never used to happen and one day it just started, it now does it about 5-6 times a week.

Ubuntu Networking :: Lucid Wireless Randomly Disconnects

Jun 25, 2010

After upgrade to Lucid I have experienced intermittent wireless disruptions. The wireless just cuts out and reconnects.And I was hoping to continue or follow up on the same thread however with the released version.I tried replacing network manager with wicd and I tried the other driver options both without success.I'm currently using the Broadcom B43 driver, when I tried the Broadcom STA driver wireless would not work. I use the 64 bit OS, and this problem did not appear prior to the upgrade.

Ubuntu :: Lucid Hangs Randomly After Waking From Screensaver?

Feb 15, 2011

32 bit Lucid is hanging at random times for me. it always happens when there's some sort of full-screen overlay, like when waking from screensaver, or when using gksu (dims the screen). The machine will remain unresponsive for 30 seconds to a minute, then becomes usable again, just with the desktop not refreshed. Nothing of interest in the logs when this happens. The last thing upgraded in the machine was the graphics card (now running a GTS 450). 3d apps work just fine, temps are just fine, and I have no reason to believe it's hardware.

Ubuntu :: Playing .mkv And .mp4 Files In Lucid

Feb 23, 2011

Basic spec information:

Model: Asus Eee PC 1201HAB
Processor: 2x Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU Z520 @ 1.33GHz
Memory: 1016MB
Operating System: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Video: Intel Graphics Accelerator

Will provide additional information if needed. Issue: Despite all the legwork I've been doing, I cannot play .mkv and .mp4 files. So far I've tried using VLC player, installing the w32codecs using medibuntu, installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras package, and did some gstreamer stuff. Nothing has worked so far. The best I've gotten is a blank screen with the audio. On a not so serious note, I have also been having trouble getting my webcam to work. I installed cheese, but it too only gives me a blank screen. In spite of having a blank screen, the pictures I take with it show up in the file. It's a rather vexing matter, but not as serious as the above one.

Ubuntu :: Lucid Shuts Off Monitor Randomly - Disabled Sleep And Screensaver To No Effect

May 24, 2010

I'm running a fresh 10.04 x86-64 on a thinkpad w500, using the default video driver. The monitor shuts off randomly, sometimes while I'm using it and requires me to trigger sleep mode and waking up to bring back the screen. When it shuts off, everything else seems to be running. (i.e. its not going to sleep) I've turned off screensaver, sleep, hibernation and installed the Caffeine util to no avail.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Music Suddenly Stopped Playing In Lucid Lynx?

Jun 7, 2010

After a successful upgrade to lucid, everything was going GREAT (including FINALLY having surround output) until now all of the sudden music files won't play... When I double-click a file, Totem opens automatically, and it says it's playing,but there's no sound and the bar does not move across at the bottom. In VLC, the bar moves like it's playing, but there is still no sound. Doesn't work when I hover the cursor over a file, either. In previous versions of Ubuntu, a simple reboot would fix this, but that doesn't work with Lucid... Online streaming works fine.

Ubuntu :: Computer Restarts Every 5 Seconds?

Feb 13, 2010

About two weeks ago I installed ubuntu 9.10 desktop with a dualboot to my windows 7, which was already on there. everything went fine, but I couldn't configure my wireless to work, so after a few days I gave it a rest and basically forgot about; I just stuck with windows. anyways, yesterday night I installed a program called solidworks on my system. I woke up this morning, turned on my computer, and this is what happened-

it turns on for about 5 seconds, but when it hits "grub loading", after about half a second it restarts. it's basically an infinite loop, until i throw in a cd or hit f8, but I don't know what to do with either of those options, so I'm kind of stuck.

I'm posting this in the ubuntu forums because I have NO idea what's wrong with it, and no idea of where to start. I've got both installation disks, but I don't know what to do when I put them in. I've got an intel pentium 4 processor, and like i said, i've got a dualboot with windows 7 and ubuntu 9.10.

Ubuntu Servers :: Server Restarts When It Wants?

Jul 12, 2010

I'm currently using ubuntu desktop 9.10 (without desktop - I've removed packages) as OS on my server.But there's going on some strange thing ... There are about 8 users, and the thing is they many times user rar or some other disk-demanding programs. What I've noticed is that sometimes server will go with load over 20 (I know that's not good ...) and it will come down in few minutes and everything is OK, but sometimes it just restarts itself. I would like to disable that so it won't restart

Ubuntu :: PC Restarts After Booting From DVD / Stop It To Do So?

Jul 31, 2010

I'm a WuBi user, and wanted to upgrade XP to 7, I've upgraded it partially when in XP. So as expected he messed up my grub.

But now I have the problem:
Every time I insert the Windows 7 DVD the pc says "Please press any key to boot up from CD/DVD" (as normal), but when I press the "any" key, the PC does absolutely nothing and just restarts.

Not to long ago I used the same DVD on another laptop for an equal upgrade (XP to 7) that went flawless.

My booting set-up is correct, cleaned the disc 500 times now, nothing out of the ordinairy done to my boot-screen or the BIOS... And as far as I know, no blue screen of death when installing the upgrade.

I haven't got a clue what I have to do.
