Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-headers-2.6.27-12
Hi. I've Kubuntu 8.10 64bit, freshly installed (no upgrade from previous version). I have kde 4.1.4. My machine is a laptop, dell xps m1530. No external drivers, the only driver I'm using is Nvidia 180.22 installed manually running the package from the Nvidia website. I've just update my kernel from 2.6.27-11 to 2.6.27-12 as Adept have notified me...and now when I reboot I have this problem: after a quick loading of the kubuntu logo, on the black screen appears something like this: *Checking battery state... /dev/xxx: setting Advanced Power Management level to 0xfe (254) then nothing. Just ctrl+alt+del (it remember me of windows...) and reboot with the old kernel, luckily I still have it. I really can't understand why they update so often the kernel when there is the risk (real, as seen) to have an unbootable system after an update. I think of the normal-medium user who want to try linux as a stable system. I think this is quite worrying.
