Ok, Ctrl-Alt-F1 won't work as the kernel would just freeze at login attempt. I will try Hardy Heron Alpha3 and let you know if it work just have to finish downloading it
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It may be quite hard to get this. You should try to Ctrl-Alt-F1 (the first one is the console and should receive kernel errors), and try to log on it. If a kernel crash (oops) happen, then it will give full info on the screen. You could take a picture with a digital camera and upload it. Other option is to plug to other computer with null-modem serial cable. There is a third option with kdump, but no one seems to suggest it. That said, what would be best for us to know for now is if this happen also with Hardy. The Hardy Heron Alpha series was recently released. Alpha2 and subsequent releases contain an updated version of the kernel. You can download and try the new Hardy Heron Alpha release from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/ . You should be able to then test the new kernel via the LiveCD. If you can, please verify if this bug still exists or not and report back your results. General information regarding the release can also be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks! Alpha 3 is due for tomorrow, probably best to wait friday to be sure it is there. -- Fails to logon (freezes) and cannot use terminal as it freezes as well if i try running any commands. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177820 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
