Title: Ubuntu froze Post by: slowmining on June 08, 2011, 07:22:29 AM I left my pc open this night for mining, but I woke up because the fan was too loud. The pc was frozen, I could not even move the mouse.
I monitored my temps in the day and they were always under 76C. Title: Re: Ubuntu froze Post by: MCWey8 on June 08, 2011, 07:31:13 AM That is not good...
is everything ok, did you restart it ? does it smell like burnt plastic ? where you able to ctrl+alt+f1 to get to tty1 ? What Specs? Software ? Ubuntu 10.04, 10.10, or 11.04 have you thought of adding external cooling, just incase. Sooo many questions, soooo little information... uncool story bro ...

I've seen Ubuntu completely lock up when an optical mouse is not seated well, and is continuously sending small jitter to X server. This fills up input buffers/handling and leads to X 100% CPU and then kernel panic. System will have to be power cycled. Try disconnecting mouse when you go to sleep.

I restarted it, everything is fine, I'm even mining now without any problems.is everything ok, did you restart it ? does it smell like burnt plastic ? where you able to ctrl+alt+f1 to get to tty1 ?

Could be this the problem, so?Try disconnecting mouse when you go to sleep. I've had it happen at aggr=7 and it happens most quickly at aggr=11 or higher. You're using an optical mouse, aren't you?
