Crashing Apple Macbook 2011
by G-Raps from LinuxQuestions.org on (#55AZY)
Hi All,
While working with an Apple Macbook Pro 15", early 2011 model, the system crashed after an ordinary task in Mozilla Firefox Quantum. I have 16 GB of GDDR3 RAM onboard, and the processor is a core i7 from the, I believe, Broadwell cpu design.
Anyway, the system was humming along at internet access speed of about 15-30 Mbps while I was browsing my Yahoo mail. After caching several page screens and so on, the screen blacked out. Almost immediately, cpu fan activity started spinning up, and the keyboard was unresponsive.
Has anybody loaded Ubuntu 20.04 onto their Apple Macbooks and found this scenario out ? I would fathom to guess that this was an ordinary system crash.
