Bad news. I upgraded the Toshiba NB305 to Maverick (2.6.35-22-generic, 10.10). I tried booting with nohpet on the kernel boot line and it hung during boot. This is contrary to what I observed with Lucid as described above. Tapping the left SHIFT key does cause the boot to resume though. So that does work as Kyle has described. The machine will not hibernate but freezes half way through hibernation and has to be hard reset. . Booting without the nohpet, hangs during boot but tapping the left SHIFT key causes boot to resume. For both the boot attempts described above the music that plays after login is all stuttering and cutting in and out. Hibernate does not work after booting with or without nohpet and tapping the shift key to get it to boot. Installing bootchart does not cure the boot problem like it did in Lucid. After installing bootchart, the machine boots into initramfs with or without tapping the left shift key.
Bottom line... Maverick is worse than Lucid!!! At least in Lucid I could get reliable booting and hibernate/resume. With Maverick, the only way to get it to boot is to tap the left SHIFT key.... and hibernate/resume does not work (at least for me).
