I've got rid of the problem by adding acpi=off to /etc/defaults/grub. i.e. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi=off"
The downside is that I'm left with only a command prompt and no Unity netbook shell. There's probably a better solution somewhere. -- Udev worker error during boot "worker [XX] did not accept message -1 (Connection refused), kill it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/647404 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
