| ronj | Hi. After doing yesterday's upgrade, using Ctrl+Alt+L as shortcut to 'Lock screen' no longer works. Mildly reminiscent of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1242423 , is it a known issue / should I re-open the bug or create a new one? Thanks! | 18:11 |

| plasmasolutions | Hi guys, thanks so much for making this distro ... I love it! | 20:13 |
| plasmasolutions | But I got a big problem since I upgraded my hardware 3 days ago: Freezes (inkl. kernel panic) when the video thumbnailer runs over some h264 files | 20:14 |
| plasmasolutions | Have you got any idea how I could track down the issue? | 20:14 |
| plasmasolutions | It's not only in GUbuntu but also in other ubuntu flavours...didn't try mandriva yet | 20:15 |
| Noskcaj | plasmasolutions, What was the hardware change? | 20:37 |
| plasmasolutions | Noskcaj: I changed from my intel i7 860 to a new haswell i7 4770k | 20:39 |
| plasmasolutions | and the mobo too | 20:39 |
| plasmasolutions | http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Fatal1ty%20Z87%20Killer/ | 20:39 |
| Noskcaj | Good motherboard, but for that drastic a change, you really need to re-install, as with any other OS | 20:40 |
| plasmasolutions | I'm doing animations, so I needed a board with two GPUs and many sata | 20:40 |
| plasmasolutions | Noskcaj: Yeah, thought the same | 20:40 |
| plasmasolutions | So I made a complete fresh install after this crash happened | 20:40 |
| plasmasolutions | and the problem persisted | 20:41 |
| Noskcaj | Strange. | 20:41 |
| plasmasolutions | Then I tried a live distro ... downloaded blender, opened a file from my seperate home dir and ... freeze | 20:41 |
| Noskcaj | Have you reported a bug or at least seen what the crash was? | 20:41 |
| plasmasolutions | In a live distro! | 20:41 |
| plasmasolutions | So I'm really at the end of my idea line now | 20:42 |
| Noskcaj | So it's either a hardware issue or some big kernal panic. | 20:42 |
| plasmasolutions | Noskcaj: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/x264/+bug/1270655 | 20:42 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1270655 in x264 (Ubuntu) "System freeze (kernel panic) while decoding H264 files" [Undecided,New] | 20:42 |
| plasmasolutions | That is my report | 20:42 |
| plasmasolutions | I guess: While decoding h264, the hardware decoder and the motherboard are not communicating nicely | 20:43 |
| plasmasolutions | therefore it's crashing | 20:43 |
| plasmasolutions | But as I said, that's guessed | 20:44 |
| Noskcaj | I don't really know what to do, but a few suggestions: Run memtest, try a live cd of 14.04 daily | 20:44 |
| Noskcaj | try with 1 gpu | 20:45 |
| plasmasolutions | Noskcaj: Did it, no issues after one day | 20:45 |
| plasmasolutions | Noskcaj: See, as a dev I try to be as logical as possible... but here I fail now. | 20:46 |
| Noskcaj | I'm pretty much out of ideas. Maybe try #ubuntu, and mention bug 1270655 , Since there's many more people there. | 20:59 |

| Noskcaj | !support | Or anything listed here. | 21:00 |
| ubot5 | Or anything listed here.: The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org and http://askubuntu.com | 21:00 |
| plasmasolutions | Noskcaj: I will thanks nevertheless for your help! | 21:03 |
| ricotz | plasmasolutions, try #ubuntu-x since this sounds intel-driver/mesa related | 21:03 |
| plasmasolutions | ricotz: But it's the same with gtx 560ti | 21:04 |
| ricotz | plasmasolutions, using nvidia-blob then? | 21:04 |
| plasmasolutions | ricotz: then yeah... but atm the card is out of the tower | 21:05 |
| plasmasolutions | just to make sure it is not the nvidia crap | 21:06 |
| plasmasolutions | and I tried it with the opensource driver too | 21:06 |
| plasmasolutions | always the same | 21:06 |
| ricotz | and you purged the nvidia driver now to be sure | 21:06 |
| ricotz | while this might be still interfere with a bumblebee/nvidia-prime setup | 21:07 |
| plasmasolutions | ricotz: no, I didn't | 21:09 |
| ricotz | plasmasolutions, you could start trying newer mainline kernels while this looks quite bleeding edge hardware | 21:09 |
| plasmasolutions | but I could | 21:09 |
| plasmasolutions | ricotz: Tried that too.. was installing the mainline 3.13 | 21:09 |
| plasmasolutions | nothing was looking up | 21:10 |
| plasmasolutions | but it still was locking up ;) | 21:10 |
| ricotz | mention that there | 21:10 |
| plasmasolutions | in the bug report? | 21:11 |
| ricotz | to <tjaalton> | 21:12 |
| plasmasolutions | ricotz: Mentioned, tjaalton as a subscriber? | 21:13 |
| plasmasolutions | Done | 21:14 |
| ricotz | plasmasolutions, make sure to mention nvidia driver version too and you should try 331.38 | 21:15 |
| ricotz | plasmasolutions, i didnt ask you to add him, you were already talking to him | 21:16 |
| plasmasolutions | ricotz: ;) Yeah, sorry, I misunderstood you! | 21:18 |

| darkxst | ronj are you seeing " Dropping signal AcceleratorActivated of type (uuu) since the type from the expected interface is (uu)" message in the gnome-settings-daemon.log? | 23:07 |
