Public bug reported:
Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
To reproduce
1) Install Ubuntu Dapper Flight 6 to Acer Travelmate 3004WTMi, Intel Centrino
2) System:Administration:Software properties
- Remove: CDROM
+ Add: Ubuntu 6.04 Security Updates (binary) Community
maintained (universe)
+ Add: Ubuntu 6.04 "Dapper Drake" (binary) Community
maintained (universe)
Close
3) (Both updates are done on 2006-04-09)
$ sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
$ sudo apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
4) Click on the "you should reboot" icon on top right corner.
What should happen: computer should boot normally
What actually happens:
After boot, complete freeze on "Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald" in
the boot splash screen. All previous things on screen show "ok". The
line is about 95% done. No keys do anything: caps lock, alt-ctrl-backspace,
alt-ctrl-del, alt-ctrl-f1 (2,3,4...), mouse, quick power button click. Had to
press power button for 10 s to shut down.
3004WTMi requires "noapic irqpoll" to boot, I checked that these options
were still present in grub configuration.
Additionally, also runlevel 1 is now broken:
Tried booting to runlevel 1 with grub options "1".
Stopped on "Sending all processes the TERM signal..."
caps lock changes led status, holding tab creates disk action, can change
to alt-ctrl-f1. After some waiting, more text was printed on vt1, eg:
"Disabling IRQ #11". Still, there seems to be no way to get a prompt.
