Ciao Fabio, Thank you for replying. I had meant to update: Unable to fix the problem, I returned the computer to the store and got an identical Acer [not Asus] 722-0490. This time I put the battery in before installing Ubuntu 11.10. It worked. The only problem I have had since is that it was

Public bug reported: Perhaps an odd case: In a rush to get a replacement up, I installed 11.10 without putting in the battery. Everything was working fine until I turned off the computer and installed the battery. Now, with or without the battery in and with or without external power, the

2011-11-17 Thread Matt Cargo
Public bug reported: This won't be a great bug report because the computer is bricked whenever I put it though the ordinary boot procedure. What happens is that it reports a kernel taint and then panics. I reinstalled the OS twice today, and am getting the same problem. I wouldn't rule out

OK. After apt-get updates, the computer boots, on only the second try! However, FPDMA queue errors persist, and experience tells me rebooting will be a risky proposition. Attaching revised dmesg. ** Attachment added: dmesg dmesg.txt
