Ubuntu 18.04 freezing randomly and freezes on shutdown and reboot












2















I recently set up a dual boot on my new laptop with an i7 8750h and a laptop grade gtx 1050, with Ubuntu 18.04 alongside Windows 10.



uname -r shows 4.18.7-041807



Any time I try shutting the machine down or rebooting it does not work. I tried a bunch of things like editing the grub config file and disabling secure boot and fast boot.



screenshot of /etc/default/grub with intel_idle.max_cstate=1 parameter



What else can I try?










share|improve this question

























  • The parameter intel_idle.max_cstate=1 only fixes freezing problems for Bay Trail processors, of which yours is not one. I have not heard of this helping anyone with an i7. Can you please tell us if you have this problem with the standard Ubuntu kernel? Why did you install the 4.18? Was it to fix this? I assume your CPU uses i915. Not sure of the current status but there are frequent patches and regressions so you might well find YMMV with different kernels

  • You might try running the standard, supported, 4.15 kernel. 4.18 is not supported here. Sorry.

  • I was on 4.15 and it was still happening... I updated the kernel in Hope's of there may have been a fix... I also believe that my CPU is i915

    There was also a post on here saying to change the parameter in the /etc/default/grub file called grub_cmdline_default_linux from the default to acpi=force... not sure what that does but it didnt work either.

  • There's nothing wrong with asking about a problem you have running Ubuntu with a non-standard kernel. There is a consensus that such questions are not off-topic.

The fix involved going to /etc/default/grub and changing the default line to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="noacpi" and then running sudo update-grub.



I also disabled fast boot and secure boot.






share|improve this answer


























  • Did it in my recently installed Ubuntu 18.04LTS, it started to log to screen boot process and then crashed in an hour. Will try my luck with fast boot and secure boot. You may add your recommendations about them to your answer as well. Did it all the trick to avoid freezes in 18.04 for you BTW?
