Currently it's 87F outside. I have a window open directly behind the system and a fan blowing on the front of it. We're just not ready to turn the AC on yet. CPU0 is running around 116F and CPU1 109F. This whole issue of the video freezing whether it's with or without the Hangcheck error has been ongoing here on my system since 13 Sept 2014. The last time the video froze with the Hangcheck error was Jan 17 2016. Since then the video has frozen without the error on 1/21/16; 1/27/16; 2/25/16; 3/08/16; 3/11/16; and today 3/15/16 at 09:50am. I came back to the desktop at around 11am to find it frozen at 9:50. I moved the mouse, the video flickered and the clock caught up and came unfrozen. The only thing in my syslog for that time is: 09:50:07 localhost kernel: [347769.284331] [drm:drm_mode_addfb2] [FB:60] 09:50:07 localhost kernel: [347769.303256] [drm:drm_mode_addfb2] [FB:62] 09:50:07 localhost kernel: [347769.324369] [drm:drm_mode_addfb2] [FB:63] -- Chris KeyID 0xE372A7DA98E6705C 31.11°N 97.89°W (Elev. 1092 ft) 17:25:15 up 5:37, 1 user, load average: 0.85, 0.58, 0.44 Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS, kernel 3.19.0-56-generic #62~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 11 11:03:15 UTC 2016 _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
