Description Stephanvann 2011-02-01 09:22:30 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 1.2) 
OS:                Linux

I have installed a fresh copy of Kubuntu about a week ago. All updates have been downloaded and applied. I have alsi installed lates KDE.
The system randomly freezes every couple of minutes. I need to restart about 20 times a day. Not specific program - I can be working in emial, broswer etc. when the system freezes. I have set all display settings to "default". Running only two "activities"

Reproducible: Didn't try

Are you using OpenGL compositing with intel video drivers?

Comment 2 Stephanvann 2011-02-01 15:48:53 UTC

how would I determine that?

I do use OopenGL yes.

After your question about the video drivers I went to "Additional drivers" and saw that the Nvidia drivers were not enabled. I enabled it and it downloaded the latest drivers. 

So far so good, no freeze yet.

Thanks for the update, Stephan!

I am marking this as resolved, referring to your latest comment. If you get the freezes again, please reopen.
