Kamal, the fix (brightness) works perfectly for Dell 14R series laptops (N4010). Thanks a lot! I hope this soon makes it into the official kernel. dmesg shows "acpi device:00: registered as backlight/i915" -- Screen brightness control fails on Dell Studio 1558 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568

[Bug 63418] Re: CPU soft lockup during bootup

2007-01-27 Thread Binoy Fernandez
I am having the same problem on a Dell XPS 1210 notebook running Edgy (2.6.17-10-generic). The system locks up only when booting with the ipw3945 kill switch turned on. Can we expect an official fix for this (on 2.6.17-10-generic) anytime in the near future? -- CPU soft lockup during bootup http
