I just noticed something I haven't before.. I may have previously stated that the new kernels being used in Jaunty fix the issue, but for the first time in a very long time I booted my laptop via battery instead of the power cord and it went back to it's same old shenanigans. I was forced to use the shift key to boot the system, then it locked up (though later I found the lockup was due to a custom setting I was using for my Intuos3 tablet, while the tablet was not connected).
I think I will look into this custom DSDT file and see if it resolves the issue for Jaunty as well. This is quite upsetting though, if what 67GTA says is true, this problem is not going to go away for a while. Just when we think Linux is becoming easier to use and thus more widely accepted, someone throws a handful of nails under our wheels. :/ -- System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272247 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
