Public bug reported: syslog shows a bug trying to load the toshiba_acpi module with hotkeys_over_acpi enabled. This caused Xorg to hang during I810 initialization. I was able to get around this by disabling the option in /etc/modprobe.d/toshiba_acpi.modprobe.
Attached is the relevant section of the log. ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- toshiba_acpi: ktoshkeyd initialisation failed https://launchpad.net/bugs/61981 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
