[Bug 586901] Re: [maverick] intermittent full system freeze

[databubble]

Toal,

I don't believe my bug has anything to do with xorg....  I can trigger
it by using handbrake (CLI) to rip a DVD with no X server running.

Just testing it again (using linux 2.6.35-22)...

1) booted without nolapic kernel parameter
2) switched to tty1 
3) login and "sudo stop kdm"
4) begin ripping a DVD with handbrake CLI

After a couple of minutes of ripping, the application reports a
segfault.

The shell prompt re-appears, but within a couple of seconds, the screen
goes blank and no further response is to be had (no keyboard lights, no
ping responses, etc.)

Again, this bug isn't about ripping DVD's.... that's just my sure-fire
way of triggering it.  If I boot without nolapic (so both cores
enabled), then, after a few minutes to a few hours, the system will lock
solid during normal usage.   The system is solid with nolapic, and was
solid under karmic.
