Even though this bug is marked as fixed, I just encountered it on a fresh install of 8.04.1 when I chose to hibernate the laptop. I have an atheros wireless card (b43 module), but I haven't installed any restricted software nor have I installed the binary firmware yet.
The exact message is: [ ####.######] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 11s! [ipolldevd:5141] Instead of hibernating, this message scrolls indefinitely. -- CPU soft lockup during boot if ipw3945 kill switch is on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/63418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
