Bug Description

After booting the computer up and logging in I open Clementine (media player) and at various time have started other applications (including LibreOffice Calc and simutrans. After 5-10 minutes the audio goes into a loop (repeating the same part of a track that is shorter than 1 second) and after around have a minute the system freezes and the video changes to a pattern of vertical light and dark blue stripes.

This is happening often. Sometimes it happens in the situation described above. Other times the freezing and the screen going blank happens without any sound playing. I have not had this occur more than about 15 minutes after starting the computer.

Mark Norman, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
