Constant Ubuntu Errors regarding Xorg? #79

Open doreato opened 8 years ago

doreato commented 8 years ago

I keep getting issues and crashes, my computer crashes randomly and I can't seem to understand why. I would love to post the error file but I can't open it(permission denied and for some reason Nautilus doesn't work anymore). Anyone facing constant crashing and error messages recently?

Same problem the worst thing, it's random when you want to debug doesn't happen and when happen you are in a hurry for see something or without internet etc...

It's getting a little out of hand honestly. I'm basically on some random timer that says at some point everything will crash and I need to restart. Chromium for example freezes my whole computer when I exit out of a fullscreen video for example. Super frustrating how little support Dell has provided for a laptop that came with Ubuntu pre-installed(I have the Win10 version but still)

@JoseVacas - I just updated, but I installed Linux on this laptop a little bit after January 11th so I thought I'd have the most updated versions of Ubuntu I could(15.1 and all). Is there a way for me to check whether or not I successfully updated to 4.4?

Sorry for my english. Ubuntu 15.10 have the 4.2 kernel, but you can install the last kernel from this url http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/v4.4-wily/ .

You have to install three packets. Linux header amd64, Linux header generic amd64 and linux image amd64.

I wish can i help you
