Unrelated but I would love to figure out why my AMD system will completely lock up (including the mouse) under certain tasks with high CPU loads (in ubuntu). Rendering with Kdenlive is a great way to lock up my entire system for example. It is so irritating it makes me want to go to an intel system even though I have a very nice CPU and mobo.
- MatekCopatek 4y agoI might have the same issue, although it's hard to say. My current suspicion is it's somehow related to power saving, because I can't reproduce it after a fresh reboot. It only starts happening once I go through a few power states (e.g. by closing the laptop lid). Since you mentioned a mobo I assume you're on a desktop. Do you use sleep/hibernate?
- TaylorAlexander 4y agoAh yeah I remember there being an open issue for the kernel that had something to do with sleep states, but if I recall they supposedly patched that bug. I don't use sleep/hibernate. I'm not sure what my system settings are for those modes. Yes on desktop.
- MawKKe 4y agoI have ’pcie_aspm=off’ in my boot params, although I don’t recall the exact reason why it was needed. Likely something stability related, have you tried it? Although sounds like your problem could also be caused by I/O saturation?
- NayamAmarshe 4y agoDoesn't happen to me. I'm on ZorinOS (Ubuntu based) but no such issues.
