THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I am confirming that the fix worked on my laptop (Sony Vaio VGN-N31S).
I made a fresh install of 8.04, deleted quiet option, booted to live session, installed Ubuntu, restarted. After restart I hit 'esc', edited the grub command lines, booted into hardy, enabled the 'proposed' updated, then proceeded to update, then restarted. After restart everything went perfect, not a single problem. I am here writing about it from Hardy Heron. Did I say thank you?? Thanks again for all the effort you put into this fix. -- [Hardy] ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) stops boot when kernel boot 'quiet' option is enabled or AC power is connected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191137 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
