I have tried installing a number of older kernels in order to attempt to find the last known good or first known bad kernel, following the examples on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection in the "Bisecting Ubuntu kernel versions" section. Not one of the kernels I have installed has booted correctly.
I have guessed that the bogus kernel was built between the last good saucy 13.10 kernel I used and the first trusty 14.04 kernel I installed. First I installed trusty 3.12.0-8.16. It would not boot. I got a full crash. Then I installed saucy 3.11.0-26.45. It would not boot because MDADM could not find my RAIDs. So then I tried trusty 3.13.0-4.19. It would not boot, again because MDADM: Incrementally starting RAID arrays... mdadm: CREATE group disk not found Incrementally started RAID arrays. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I have been installing all three images as per the wiki page, for example: linux-headers-3.13.0-4_3.13.0-4.19_all.deb linux-image-3.13.0-4-generic_3.13.0-4.19_amd64.deb linux-headers-3.13.0-4-generic_3.13.0-4.19_amd64.deb -- 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/1326757 Title: [Dell Dimension E521] System goes to sleep at GDM window and never wakes up Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On my Dell Dimension E521, a desktop system, if I leave the system at the login prompt it will very quickly go to sleep. When I press the power button to wake it, the system seems to restart, but the screen and the keyboard never wake up. I have to poke it in the eye and reboot. This behavior effectively renders the machine unusable if I am away. If the power goes out and the system reboots, it will very quickly sleep and never wake up. Thus, I cannot use it remotely. And if I forget to immediately (IMMEDIATELY) log in, the system will go to sleep and I have to hard power off and reboot. Very annoying. This only happened once I upgraded to 14.04.
