Public bug reported: Ubuntu Vivid using stock install, no additional configs, on a dual boot (Ubuntu + Win7)
When booting, my laptop will sometimes boot successfully, sometimes not, and sometimes, will reboot. Using CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to terminal shows me a console flood for Nouveau (sometimes) and sometimes not. Sometimes I see messages about firmware not being used/installed. I cannot reliably replicate this problem, but I have had similar problems running Fedora on this machine with similar console floods, which points further up to the upstream kernel. I suspect it is a race condition, as if I can see the console flood, the laptop often boots successfully, but if I don't I either get a kernel panic or a self-reboot. Can provide more information/HW details if needed (but not at the machine right now) ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1506845 Title: Suspected Race Condition on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1506845/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
