As petski points out, this is very likely the same issue as https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157691 because:
- it affects the HP 6710b (comment #3) - "nosmp" avoids the bug (comment #20) - crash is related to lid event User-mode code changes are not a fix for a kernel panic, so any hotkey- setup or similar changes are at best a band-aid. There is a kernel fix upstream: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=74b5820808215f65b70b05a099d6d3c969b82689 I also ported this patch to 2.6.24-24-generic. The patched file is in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hotkey- setup/+bug/157691/comments/58 -- Closing lid results in kernel panic visible on VT-1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228399 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
