** Description changed: Problem: Intrepid fails to boot on a variety of laptops using the iwl3945 driver. - Affected versions: 2.6.27-2 through 2.6.27-7. By at least one report, - 2.6.27-1 does not exhibit the problem. + Affected versions: all 2.6.27 Intrepid kernels. 2.6.26 is reported not + to be affected. Symptoms: A hard freeze partway through the boot process, near the time when the iwl3945 module is loaded. No kernel panic is printed, and the system is unresponsive even to Sysrq. Frequency: This happens frequently, but not every time (20%-80% failure rate). Workarounds: Blacklisting iwl3945 reliably avoids the problem. Delaying the loading of iwl3945 for 5 seconds also reliably avoids the problem.
