My Dell D620 laptop hangs/freezes randomly on slackware64 14.2
Hello,
I recently removed windows XP() from my Dell latitude d620 laptop and installed slackware64 with multilib and xfce following the slackware wiki, with kernel 4.4.190
All went relatively ok, and I mainly browse the web on that machine(firefox 68 esr) but at random times (2 or 3 times a day) the laptop would freeze : my mouse led would shut down, the wifi led keeps flickering, the hardware network switch does nothing, etc). Only way out is to power down the machine and restart.
Sometimes the computer randomly reboots too.
Both these problems happen mainly on the web (because thats what i do the most) but it also happened reading a pdf with okular)
This is the first time I'm investigating a problem like that.
Here is syslog excerpt from such a crash that occurred today around 10:45 (i booted at 10:38)

I do not fully understand what goes wrong in my xsession. I do not use any bluetooth device. And even if blueman has an issue, I hardly see how it makes the whole machine hang.
My feeble linux skills do not allow me to see an obvious issue or message from the kernel. Maybe I do not look straight or do not look at the right place.
Please, would you help me figuring out where to look to solve this mystery? I like slackware's hands on approach, and this is a good way for me to learn more about linux.
The HW could be faulty and the RAM should be the first to test.
Here in this recent thread you'll get what it needs to test the RAM (link to the memtest86+ on SlackBuilds) together with some useful info: https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...em-4175661557/
P.S. I just recall that I used one of those D620 (heavy piece of sh ... almost broke my shoulder/neck with it) with a company I worked many years ago and during many business trips I managed to block the heatsink with dust (was totally clogged). It would just hang and crash (turn off too) randomly and had to send it in service.
D620 was one of my favorite laptops of all time. I had about half a dozen over the years.
Beware the NVIDIA card versions as they always went bad eventually after use. You can put the board in the oven to fix it for a while (seriously). Intel video was the way to go.
I forgot to mention that I used it with Windows XP the last three years, with the same memory and ssd and without issues. Nonetheless i just spent an hour running memtest86+ and badblocks from a live usb. Therefore that leads me to believe that the problem is software related.
Also this laptop has a intel video chip (and i didnt install any driver package on top of the slackware installer)
And it does not heat up. In fact it sometimes hangs minutes after booting, but never did so when i was compiling slackbuilds.
In the short log snippets from your original post I couldn't find anything wrong and that's why I suggested to check the RAM & cpu temp.
Your problem could be SW related and I'd focus on the kernel & BIOS for now.
There is one particular error in your kernel log:
Code:
Oct 8 11:03:08 lagann kernel: [ 4.386690] [Firmware Bug]: Duplicate ACPI video bus devices for the same VGA controller, please try module parameter "video.allow_duplicates=1"if the current driver doesn't work.
As a workaround/possible solution - try adding the following kernel boot parameter in your boot loader configuration - kernel append line:
Code:
processor.max_cstate=1
Some other hints, try disabling the Power Management and also the Pulg&Play from the BIOS.
The entire kernel boot log (dmesg) together with the output of lspci could help the investigation further.
Please use https://pastebin.com/ for the kernel log and try to edit out serial numbers and MAC addresses for privacy reasons.

Reason: typo
i booted again on systemrescuecd because i needed to use gparted, and managed to make the computer hang twice in a row when starting gparted. It could be something wrong with some of my hardware, although I'm puzzled by badblocks not picking anything. Maybe it's not suited to testing SSD drives?
here is some smartctl data : patebin, I'm not sure why I do not get a SMART Error log there. But I guess it means the disk is faulty?
my CPU is a core 2 T5500 : pastebin
here is dmesg when doing a fresh boot: pastebin
lspci : pastebin
I now have the following append line in lilo.conf :
I have a mostly-retired Latitude D630 that still gets used on occasion (running 14.2 32-bit though). You referred to issues that might be tied to the SSD, have you gone through your BIOS settings to be in accordance with that? If there's a SATA option in the BIOS and there's a AHCI or ATA selection, is AHCI the chosen one? (on mine, the default was ATA but back when I added a SSD that setting needed to be changed to AHCI)

I couldnt understand much from the bug report threads you posted, apart from that they are related to much older kernels than 4.4.190.
Thanks for providing all the info. I couldn't spot anything wrong in these outputs and on your harddrive (SSD), usually if something is going wrong with it, you'll get some errors in the kernel log (not a rule). Try following svim's suggestion and check/set your harddrive controller to work in AHCI mode - it should be already in that mode, if not available it might come with a BIOS update - see next paragraph.
According to your dmesg log, you run an old BIOS:
Code:
Dell Inc. Latitude D620 /0FT292, BIOS A08 04/03/2007
The kernel bug report, as mentioned already, covers newer CPUs and a wide range of kernels. The other link, specific for your CPU (Core 2) was indeed focusing on an older kernel than 4.4.190, mentioned that too. It was just a speculation and a suggestion on my side, considering that this known issue with the C-States might be the cause for your system becoming unstable.
A short presentation on C-States (use google to learn more): https://gist.github.com/wmealing/2dd2b543c4d3cff6cab7
From your last post learned that you've found a way to reproduce the problem by launching gparted, however, I couldn't understand if the processor.max_cstate=1 was already enabled before that. So, I don't know if processor.max_cstate=1 was effective or not.
I'd suggest to remove processor.max_cstate=1 for the moment, proceed with the BIOS update, set your HDD controller on AHCI and observe how the system behaves. If and only if the system still hangs/reboots, try processor.max_cstate=1 again.
P.S. You should also check if the SSD is properly inserted & fixed in the HardDrive slot. Connections problems might cause a lot of weird things to happen.

Reason: P.S.
Unfortunately, I did not find any AHCI option in the BIOS. The only SATA-related thing is Device-Initiated Power Management, which is set to enabled.
abga, when it comes to CPU power management, the only thing that's there is Intel Speedstep, which is also set to enabled.
Computer still froze with both options disabled, and BIOS flashed to the latest version(thanks for the links) + processor_max_cstate=1
Also you can ditch my observation about gparted freezing the computer, turns out it was an outlier that i have not been able to reproduce 100% of the time, unfortunately.
It could be something wrong with my disk and I'll physically reinstall it tomorrow and check the contacts. I happen to have a spare lying around, is there an easy way to mirror my current installation to the other disk without running the slackware installer, the multilib set up and all my installed slackbuilds?
Check the BIOS again, usually in Advanced Tab under Storage. There will be a listing to operate your hard drive controller(s) with either ATA or SATA-AHCI compatibility or 1) Your SSD wouldn't work at all and 2) XP would have been unlikely to work.
There are only two ways to get AHCI-SATA support in XP (1) boot on an ATA system and install chipset specific drivers fro SATA-AHCI support, or (2) slipstream the appropriate drivers into the install media or use the F6-Floppy "install additional drivers" function. To my knowledge no XP version including Service Packs ever included SATA-AHCI drivers. So your BIOS, assuming you never reset it, is almost certainly set to "ATA". That will also almost certainly be "hinky" with an SSD.

Sorry to hear that none of the suggested fixes worked. I hoped that the BIOS update would sort things out ... but apparently it's not the case. Your actual dmesg after the BIOS update looks OK too.
Intel Speedstep shouldn't cause anything bad, leave it activated, but the other option for your HDD - "Device-Initiated Power Management" try disabling it.
It doesn't seem you can change the SATA mode on the D620 (only on the D630): https://www.dell.com/community/Lapto...0/td-p/2413185
If you replace the SSD with an older spinner and the system becomes stable, stick with that old HDD then, use the SSD as an external drive in an USB enclosure or for another system/project.
I looked over the net to get some BIOS setup screenshots, found none useful, then I went for the official DELL documentation, again nothing related to BIOS setup. There is a service manual available, useful for disassembly... https://www.dell.com/support/home/us...tude-d620/docs

Please see my previous post regarding your BIOS storage options. I also do recommend a BIOS update if you haven't done that already. I know that's scary for some but if you read the manufacturer's instructions there are very few steps and it is quite foolproof as well as seriously beneficial.
Regarding cloning, I would download and burn Clonezilla. DD can also do the job but the learning curve for anyone who needed to ask if it is even possible is substantial for "dd" and very short and easy for Clonezilla, plus it is effected from a live boot, from outside the system you would be cloning, always a better option. It is possible to simply tar your system to a backup file but that would require more steps to make it bootable. Clonezilla clones bit for bit for every sector including MBR and if your system is instead UEFI that is covered, too. Bottom Line - Clonezilla can copy and create an exact, fully functional twin.

Hello, it turns out I did not manage to change the cstate :
#cat /etc/lilo.conf
# LILO configuration file
# generated by 'liloconfig'
#
# Start LILO global section
# Append any additional kernel parameters:
append=" vt.default_utf8=0 processor.max_cstate=1"
What I did was update the file then run lilo :
Code:
#lilo
Added Linux *
and then rebooted the machine.
Unfortunately I do not own any 2.5" HDD and only have a spare SSD. Would

Odds are that's the problem with only 2 possible solutions - Replace either the laptop or the drive. You could check the SSD stats to see if the manufacturer claims it is stable under ATA but it is unlikely.
