Hi Luis, Sorry for the delay in testing this.
I tested the Oneiric kernel with the fix on two of our three Dell XPS laptops, one of which is the one from the original report. - Kernel 3.0.0-12 boots fine - When upgrading to 3.0.0-19 from -proposed, the system panics on boot as observed - With your fixed kernel, the system boots correctly and the ite_cir module is loaded: $ uname -a && lsmod |grep ite_cir Linux 200912-4906 3.0.0-19-generic #33~postponeirq SMP Wed Apr 18 21:16:51 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux ite_cir 24743 0 rc_core 25797 9 rc_rc6_mce,ir_lirc_codec,ir_sony_decoder,ir_jvc_decoder,ir_rc6_decoder,ir_rc5_decoder,ite_cir,ir_nec_decoder On the other XPS I get the same (note only the hostnames are different): Linux 200910-4256 3.0.0-19-generic #33~postponeirq SMP Wed Apr 18 21:16:51 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux ite_cir 24743 0 rc_core 25797 9 ir_lirc_codec,ir_sony_decoder,ir_jvc_decoder,ir_rc6_decoder,rc_rc6_mce,ir_rc5_decoder,ir_nec_decoder,ite_cir So it looks like the Oneiric fix is also valid. Thanks, let me know if you need other tests done :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/984387 Title: [Dell Studio XPS 1340,Alienware m17x] Kernel panic with 3.0.0-19 and 3.2.0-18 on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/984387/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
