Tiago Requeijo, 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 (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. 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-v3.13-rc1 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. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => 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/327499 Title: kernel 2.6.28 doesn't boot on a dell inspiron 2650 Status in The Linux Kernel: Fix Released Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “linux” source package in Karmic: Fix Released Bug description: SRU Justification: Impact: The following upstream change "ACPI: Attach the ACPI device to the ACPI handle as early as possible" caused the Dell Inspiron 2650 not to boot anymore. Fix: Upstream revert, which comes in with 2.6.31.6 is supposed to fix this. --- Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.28-7-generic The boot process stops at the point on the image attached below. I tried with kernels 2.6.28-4 through 2.6.28-7, as well as custom compiled 2.6.29-rc3. None of those boots properly. The 2.6.27 series works fine.
