Switched to gdm/Gnome as default desktop since a few days (KDE software still there). Haven't been able to reproduce the lock up + autoreboot despite several attempts. So this seems to somehow be related to kdm/KDE.
However, I noticed strange behaviour in Gnome too: -USB sticks don't always get automounted (with the nautilus browser window being opened automatically and the USB icon appearing on the desktop) -They don't get unmounted correctly when using "safely remove" (I have /media/usb* directories left in /media) -- kernel lockup when plugging in USB stick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/514485 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
