The alt-f1 didn't do anything (at all), so i just took a couple pictures with my digital camera of the largest pauses of it loading..
Everything goes fine before screenshot one (no visible errors). 1st one is while squashfs begins loading. 2nd is ubuntu starts "Loading hardware drivers", and briefly pauses at ath_pci, which spits out some gibberish 3rd is about half a second after the 2nd, when the kernel panic occurs (caps lock flashes indicating panic), and the computer spits out pages of randomness instantly. this is with the latest stable release of Ibex 8.10 x64 bit the actual errors are different between each version of ubuntu, with ibex it does not say "Kernel Panic--Killing Interupt handler..". I am also booting without the options splash and quiet so the errors can be viewed. from googling, i found out someone had a similar problem with this exact same CQ50 110US laptop--http://forums.remote- exploit.org/showthread.php?t=16887, except with bt3. (as i said before, i can't run any linux based OS on this laptop, including BT3). He said he used the ucpi=off option, which didn't do anything for me (i haven't even heard of ucpi before). snapshots are in .zip thanks again for all the help ** Attachment added: "Snapshots of Ubuntu loading and the kernel panic" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19922153/snapshots.zip -- Kernel Panic, not able to boot on live cd--from kernel update to 2.6.27-2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264529 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
