Please generate a kernel task trace after it has failed. Do add log_buf_len=2M to the kernel boot command line alt-sysrq-6 to set the loglevel alt-sysrq-t to generate the trace alt-sysrq-s alt-sysrq-b and attach the resulting kernel logs to this bug. Please try to avoid getting it wordwrapped, as so often happens. Thanks. Created attachment 20780 [details]
task trace after crash
The kernel log contained some USB resume messages. Those are the first messages in 3 hours. I think the crash happened at that point, or very shortly after. I didn't plug or unplug any USB devices. (I have a USB keyboard/mouse attached.)

Bug disappeared magically, possibly after upgrade to 2.6.29.1. Since it used to appear daily and now hasn't shown up in weeks, I'll close the report. On Sunday 17 May 2009, Marcus Better wrote:

Of course the bug started recurring. I'm posting some more task traces. These are from kernel 2.6.29.3. Created attachment 21484 [details]

I believe this could be an X driver bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20893 Should we close this? |
Created attachment 20755 [details] kernel configuration With kernel 2.6.29, my laptop locks up about once or twice a day. I'm in an X.org session, and everything freezes except the mouse pointer, which I can move. Clicks don't have any effect though. The display is not updated. The keyboard doesn't work, Ctrl-Backspace has no effect. I can do a SysRq emergency sync but not reboot, so had to use the power button for that. There is absolutely nothing in the logs, but the emergency sync log entries do show up. I don't remember this happening with 2.6.28.8, but it happens daily with 2.6.29. The system is a Thinkpad T61 running Debian x86_64, X.org server 1.5.99.902-1, xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.6.1-1.
