Public bug reported: Had a working system, just upgraded it to Kubuntu 16.04, everything great after the upgrade.
The driver tool then "recommended" me to install this CPU microcode package, after that the laptop failed to boot the kernel and the caps lock is flashing. Laptop is a lenovo t500 core 2 duo with 8gb RAM, I just can't seem to boot the laptop at all anymore since installing this CPU microcode package. My question is, is it really such a good idea to "recommend" this package under drivers if it can kill your system like this? ** Affects: intel-microcode (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/1662097 Title: intel cpu microcode package killed my laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1662097/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
