I replaced my hardware but my disks.

When I start a docker container (pterodactyl) with Minecraft sometimes it will freeze with the error above. I can't find some relevant logs ...

Any ideas ?

I am trying to boot Ubuntu on a Dell with a Ryzen 7. I can't get it to boot because of messages about kernel soft lockups and such. After a while the CPU heats up a lot (probably from a loop.) I can't get any other Linux distro to boot either. Does anyone know the cause?

Kernel messages:

Being unable to ssh into a machine I connected it to a monitor and found the following:

The machine is running Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS and is a first generation 8 core Ryzen 1700. I've restarted the machine since and it works fine but am not sure what caused this in the first place and want to avoid it happening again.

This has been an issue I have experienced since Ubuntu 14.04. I have attempted a number of fixes (lost track as I've literally tried 20+) all to no avail. It's completely random when it happens and I can't exactly place what is triggering it. I could simply be surfing the web in Chrome or Firefox, or I could be doing an Android build and it will freeze.

Each time it happens, I have no keyboard or mouse functionality so I can't try to kill processes.

I have seen this on a few different hardware configurations, but they each have AMD processors and chipsets in common.

Machines were all stock voltages and speeds. No over clocking involved.

First machine specs: AMD Phenom II x6 1090t 3.2GHz Gigabyte GA-870-UD3 motherboard (AMD 870 chipset) 16GB Kingston HyperX DDR3 1600MHz Samsung 840 Pro Series 250GB SSD Nvidia GT240 1GB PCI-e

Second machine specs: AMD FX 8320 3.5GHz Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 motherboard (AMD 970 chipset) 16GB Kingston HyperX DDR3 1600MHz Samsung 840 Pro Series 250GB SSD AMD 7770 1GB PCI-e (also had Nvidia GTX 660 2GB in this configuration)

Now these specs do share some common parts. However, when I was using Ubuntu 17.10 it happened, but using Ubuntu Gnome 17.10 these freezes absolutely do not happen. I believe it to be something with Unity, but I'm at a loss as to where to start trying to track down causes.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have a Ubuntu system running xfce and 2 GB RAM. I have a 1GB swap file which, when multitasking begins to fill up. When I have even a small amount of free swap, I have no issues, but the second the swap fills, the system locks up. Not even the mouse will move, although, I am able to use [Alt]+[SysRq]+[K] to kill xfce, which still necessitates a reboot to get up and running again. I will provide more system details if they are needed. Thanks in advance.
