[Bug 295091] Re: kernel crashes at boot on a dell inspiron 531.
@Martin I tried the hardy-proposed kernel on top of my intrepid installation. The machine boots, but the resulting (hybrid) system has poor graphics resolution and in general is not very usable. Probably, there are incompatibilities between the 2.6.24 kernel and the rest of the system (compiled against a later kernel). I suggest that Arv3n tries the proposed kernel on his hardy installation and reports the results. regards -- gb -- kernel crashes at boot on a dell inspiron 531. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295091 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Arv3n what kernel are you running, exactly? can you send the output of cat /proc/version, please? anyway, I suggest that you try the latest kernel from Andy. it's at http://people.ubuntu.com/~apw/lp295091-hardy/linux-image-2.6.24-24-generic_2.6.24-24.51~lp295091apw1_i386.deb regards. -- gb -- kernel crashes at boot on a dell inspiron 531. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295091 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@andy here are the info you requested, relative to 2.6.24-19 (last good for hardy), 2.6.24-24 (your latest build) and 2.6.27-11 (intrepid current). Your analysis is very accurate. I'm sorry for not noticing the missing core in the 2.4.24-19 kernel. that would have made things much easier. best regards -- gbon ** Attachment added: aa.tar.gz http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23992644/aa.tar.gz -- kernel crashes at boot on a dell inspiron 531. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295091 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Arv3n in fact it works on my hw too. unfortunately disabling acpi has unpleasant side effects, e.g. no cpufreq support. I just prefer to run Intrepid. @Andy Whitcroft. your kernel pauses twice around the sysfs_create_link() call, as you can see in the photos. regards -- g ** Attachment added: f4.tgz http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21684997/f4.tgz -- kernel crashes at boot on a dell inspiron 531. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295091 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 295091] Re: kernel crashes at boot on a dell inspiron 531.
Hi Andy, I'll try your kernel in the next few days. In the meantime, I've been wondering about the timestamps in the 2.6.24-23 kernel output: the kernel stops after a few seconds, but the timestamp reads 180: does that mean 3 minutes? If this is the case, the kernel timer is off by a factor ten w.r.t. real time. Is it possible that 2.6.24-23 fails to configure some hw timer? Perhaps wrong timings can explain problems in thread synchronization and spurious timeouts during device probes. Is there anything I can do try other time sources or check that the source is working correctly? -- g -- kernel crashes at boot on a dell inspiron 531. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295091 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Please let me know whether the problem still persists or not and whether the backtrace is the same or different. Hi Stefan, in fact, I've followed Leann's suggestion to try Intrepid Ibex; and since it worked flawlessly, I upgraded to 8.10. However, if the upcoming 2.6.24-23.x kernel can be installed on Ibex (dependency-wise), I will be glad to try it out, in a week or two.

Hi Leann. Please find in attachment a sequence of snapshots taken during the boot process. Sorry for the bad quality. 8.10 works perfectly on the inspiron 531.
