For System76 customers a fix has been released with the latest System76 Driver version 2.0.2. If this bug is effecting your machine first check Synaptic to make sure you have the latest 2.0.2 version then go to System > Administration > System76 Driver. Click the Install Drivers tab. Click Install and the reboot when prompted. Running the driver will not effect those of you that have already applied the fix.
We decided against a separate .deb package. In our testing the above work around has rendered some machines that do not require the fix unbootable. Our driver safely applies the work around only to effected System76 machines. -- Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
