Etienne URBAH, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
However, as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds the mainline kernel is not a software package provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Because of this the Ubuntu project can not support or fix your particular bug. Please report this bug to the provider of the software package. Thanks!
