Random Freezes in Linux Distributions

Linux distributions consist of the family of Linux. Many of these distributions are under the revising and improving period stage and almost three hundred distributions are there. Now-a-days these distributions have been molded to be used at different levels from desktop to server.

A distribution can be defined as a variety of applications installed on the top of libraries which is modified according to the particular version of kernel. But sometimes these distributions face some critical problems like when any distribution like Ubuntu or Kubuntu is installed, the system experience some random hang like problems.

The system hang generally happens after a successful run of the system for few minutes and when the system is busy doing something. The system becomes unresponsive while the pointer still moves. In this case you need to hard boot the system and CTRL+ALT+F1/BS/DEL also does not work at all. The reason of the same can be any like:

• Bad power management settings
• Graphic card driver is not working properly
• There are many memory SIMMs which are no compatible with each other
• Motherboard is about to fail.

So based on the problems you can try the following work outs:

• Try removing the connected hardware one by one to know if any one of them is causing the problem
• Run memory test. For this when you restart your system, and then using arrow keys you need to move to the entry labeled like Ubuntu, memtest86+. This test will run automatically to give you the related error, if any.
• Check for the power settings and for the functioning of the motherboard.
• The main reason could be difficult device drivers. So try to find the related problem and run the solution accordingly.
• As the last option, reinstall the operating system.

So you can go for either of the option based on your analysis. But if you have come to the stage of reinstalling the system software then all is safe apart from your data. The data will get lost which you have saved till as that would format the primary volume of your hard drive and thus will delete it. However for Linux recovery, you have better option of having Linux data recovery software.

These software works for the main objective of data recovery Linux by scanning the hard drive with the use of some algorithms. To add to the ease factor of the users, these Linux data recovery software usually come with the interface which is easy to deal with.

Stellar Phoenix Linux Data Recovery software is the most advanced help that you can ask for in any situation of data loss. This Linux data recovery software goes well for the file systems like Ext2, Ext3 and Reiser FS.
