Public bug reported: Kernel oops in logs, black screen, lightdm never loads. Keyboard non- responsive after a minute or two (caps lock fails to toggle light). Power button DOES attempt to shut the computer down, but never actually does -- one must press and hold. Problem affects a Thinkpad W510 and a home-built desktop computer, both of which have nVidia cards and are using the nVidia drivers (and have worked mostly without issue for years).
3.8.0-17 is the last raring kernel that booted for me. I think this is a pretty critical problem. The 3.9 release candidates also boot and are actually very stable. Attaching dmesg.0 and kern.log, there is clearly an oops and bug in there related to the snd_htmi_intel module. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Tags: raring -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1172333 Title: Kernel 3.8.0-19 does not boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1172333/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
