Public bug reported: Up to 3.9.7, kernels in the mainline kernels ppa were usable and testable on raring systems, in spite of carrying the -saucy suffix.
>From 3.9.8 this is not anymore the case. 3.9.8 boots, but causes all process to report 200% cpu usage on a dual core system and the fan to run max speed all the time. This on a DELL E6500 with intel core 2 cpu and the 64 bit kernel. This is strange, since 3.9.8 should only include minor and safe changes agains 3.9.7. Unfortunately, this has the negative effect that people who have open bugs against the kernel cannot anymore test and report if the bug is fixed on newer kernels. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1196192 Title: Mainline kernel 3.9.8 not usable in raring To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1196192/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
