Stephen Rees-Carter, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags removed: kernel-request-3.2.0-18.28 kernel-request-3.2.0-18.29 ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.21 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903558 Title: Unable to boot 12.04 without 'noapic' flag enabled in GRUB Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since Ubuntu 11.04 my Thinkpad L520 i7 has required the 'noapic' boot flag to be set in order to boot successfully. When I first upgraded to 12.04 on 2011-12-13 this flag was not required to boot into 12.04. But an update sometime in January 2012 has caused a regression somewhere and now the 'noapic' flag is again required. This is quite frustraiting and will mean any new users who don't know anything about boot flags will be unable to install Ubuntu on their laptops. Also note, I also suffered from another bug which broke my primary laptop display on boot. But that has now been fixed in an upstream kernel: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/912992 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-4-generic 3.2.0-4.10 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-4.10-generic 3.2.0-rc5 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-4-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
