clarification lang for feliciano.  he is using 9.10, so the upgrade to
12.04 is not supported. He may instead opt for 10.04, then test his
apps. if that works fine, he may try testing his app on 12.04.  if his
app fails on pangolin, he may stay on 10.04 wc is fine.  lucid is very
stable and much tested, w support lasting up to 2015.
just a thought (not that i want to discourage him to use 12.04 :-)  ..

see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions

1 try first the steps under "Change Boot Options Temporarily For An
Existing Installation"
2 if #1 confirms the behaviour, then do the final steps under "Change
Boot Options Permanently On An Existing Installation"

if your acpi is not compliant, your devices will be affected too. mine
wont even boot unless i turn off acpi in boot options, iianm, noacpi
acpi=off.

new linux distro will activate acpi using the new acpi specs. if your
hardware is not compliant, expect surprises  you'll be stuck on
older distros...

try setting off acpi first before reinstalling to an older distro,..

on my case, i only use LTS versions. am still on 8.04 though since i'm
waiting for 10.04 to "stabilize"..  i get updates almost everyday on a
10.04 (it's running on a test vm inside an 8.04 host :)

backup your /boot/grub/menu.lst
add the option acpi=force

some boards are not acpi compliant...

ok fair enough. but what if you administer both windows and *nix
