I've done 20 installs if 10.04, mostly upgrades from 9.10, all 32 bit. Initially only 2 machines were problem machines. My computer at home and my co-workers computer at the office. None of the others had this issue for months. The upgrades were done shortly after 10.04 was released. On the two problem machines, about a week and a half ago, I did things listed here in the link in Post 165: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9480172&postcount=20 So far those machines have performed perfectly.
But........, I am now finding this happening to machines which had not had the issue. My main machine at the office, and my backup machine at the office last week, and last night my brother had it happen on his machine. He had not had any issues since I upgraded him in early May. Each time I run into this instance, I am now applying the work around above. It looks like many computers are going to be facing this issue even if they seemed fine for a period of time. It doesn't matter with respect to whether or not the computer is a newer, high spec machine, or an older low spec machine. It really looks like I had best install the workaround in post 165 as soon as I do any new installs (I have one I will be doing soon) just so people don't have this issue, and I don't have problems to fix for people. Menno in post 172 above said "replacing kernel version 2.6.32-23 by version 2.6.32-24" seemed to solve the issue for him. That kernel came in my updates last night, so this issue happened to the three other computer before the updated kernel. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. -- CUPS and other system services not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 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
