Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: plymouth
Hello,
more Ubuntus (2x 10.04, 10.10 in testing phase and still now) does not
boot, probably due to deadlock. It is random (it boots 1 in 10 chance),
pressing some keys on keyboard helps (it boots with 1 in 2 chance). I
tried changing graphic driver (one PC has ATI, 2 have NVidias), changing
Wifi driver on notebook and it helps and somehow reduce probability of
it happening, but it still happens with 2 in 3 chance. When I revert it
back, it happens with old chances. Any hardware removed (wifi, addional
harddisk) greatly reduces probability of this freezes. Removing or
adding programs to be run at boot time also partially helps.
I can post logs, but I didn't find nothing interesting and common there.
Frozen PC does not reply to NumLock/CapsLock, I can neither switch to
different virtual terminal nor restart system with SysRQ key
combination.
