I'm afraid this kernel panic happened today (14-oct-2013) again with my current kernel (3.5.0-41-generic #64~precise1-Ubuntu SMP) .
As suggested, I also tried to install the latest Mainline kernel - following the instructions found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds - with the kernel available at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/v3.12-rc5-saucy/ namely with the files "linux- headers-3.12.0-031200rc5-generic_3.12.0-031200rc5.201310131952_amd64.deb" and "linux- image-3.12.0-031200rc5-generic_3.12.0-031200rc5.201310131952_amd64.deb" but I got the following errors when running "sudo dpkg -i *.deb": -------------------- [...] Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.12.0-031200rc5-generic (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/nvidia-304-updates/304.88/build/make.log for more information. Error!

[...] -------------------- So, I'll add now the tag "kernel-unable-to-test-upstream" to this bug. Any further instruction and/or comment will be much appreciated. ** Tags added: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212856 Title: "Kernel Panic - Not syncing : Fatal Exception in Interrupt" in 12.04.2 LTS (64-bit) in a "HP Pavilion dv6" laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1212856/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
