I confirm the workaround by Jeffrey for Feisty (kernel 2.6.20-16-generic). My laptop is a HP Omnibook 6100. By moving the file intel-rng.ko to some other directory invisible to the bootup, my laptop now boots smoothly. I tried 4 times without problems.
I wonder whether removing the file is harmful in some other way. I hope not :-) Thanks for positing the workaround! -- Omnibook 6100 turns off or freezes during boot up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89892 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
