Hello Mate community,
I have been running the newest version of ubuntu-mate on my acer aspire desktop for some time now with no problems. However, one day I woke up, logged in, and my system became stuck (frozen mouse, no icons, unresponsive, unable to open terminal) I was unable to repair the system so I did a clean reinstall.
I was very happy for two days until my system failed again. Same problems and I have been unsuccessful repairing it.
I have a nvidia gforce 9200 graphics card. I installed the proprietary graphics driver with apt-get install nvidia-304 but it did not solve the problem. I also reinstalled the desktop to no avail.
However, I was able to ctrl-alt-f2 before login. I received an error message end kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt.
Apparently kernel version 4.4.0-64-generic (16.04.2 LTS) does not work on my computer. However 4.4.0-31 Does! Wohoo!
I need recommendations on what to do now! Should I upgrade to the newest distro? How to load this kernel version from boot automatically?
If anyone could help me out I will be forever grateful!
Have a great day,
Thomas Faber
