By the way, mainline kernel 3.6 seems to fix the issue without the need for a workaround. I've been using it for over a week with no crashes and working fn-keys (except screen brightness) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Hi, this is great, seems like a possible explanation. I just tested with kernel from #80 and 3.5.0-16 and the computer didn't boot correctly. Then tested with mainline 3.6.0 , it booted correctly and I have all fn-keys working (except screen brightness) I'll update tomorrow if the situation ch

I should also say that adding "nolapic" to the grub seems to be a workaround for the problem as @Tommy Nevtelen (dal) said. Tested it in Linux zenbook 3.5.0-15-generic #23~lp1041883v4 SMP Wed Sep 26 16:53:03 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -- You received this bug notification because

@jsalisbury I would open a different bug, but I believe we are all experiencing the same one, at least we all share the same "symptoms". However it is an intermittent bug, triggered by special conditions (as @BlueHawk's comments can confirm I think) which I think could explain why @peterrus is

@jsalisbury It still has the bug. If I understand correctly, the bisect you're performing is because 3.5.2 worked for @peterrus which led to the hypothesis that it was a Ubuntu specific problem, however I tested it too (see comment #59) and it didn't worked for me, so I don't think it has be

Hi, so I tested 3.5.2 again (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/v3.5.2-quantal/) and it didn't work for me. So I don't think this is a Ubuntu specific problem. I would think it has more to do with the "race condition" that @Dassburger is suggesting. @peterrus do you have any specific

I have been playing with some timing elements in the grub to slow down the boot like GRUB_TIMEOUT and root delay with no success. I've found that sometimes when waiting for a while in the grub edit menu, the bug doesn't show. I think we need more information about the bug so I'm trying to get t
