Hi there, i'm new in Ubuntu and have Dell E5410 which crashes as you mentioned in your case. I started with Ubuntu Linux 2.6.31-14-generic which hangup during the normal boot up. I was forced to run in safemode and went into shell command mode and update the kernel to 2.6.31-22 by entering the following and E5410 is booting up without problem with this version of kernel.
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.31-19-generic sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-backports-modules-karmic-generic sudo apt-get update However, this kernel is only workable if you do not use any external monitor/E-port. Something is still not right with the "IntelĀ® HD Graphics with dynamic frequency". Everything is running well except it hangs if you plug in the external VGA. It won't start up if you slot it into the E-port, unless you boot it up and slot it into the E-port and never try on the external monitor from the E-port. Would appreciate if anyone can help me if there is the right kernel to be updated in order to resolve this problem. As my notebook is running well now, I hope by renewing it will not crash my system.... -- Kernel crashes during boot on Dell E5410 (ironlake) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584843 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
