Ok. Tested for a few more days from completely cold starts. Seems stable now. No panics. Seems like that is the real fix for the boot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1041883 Title:

I've tried the fix so far and it seems stable. But I'll try again tonight from a cold start, since my problem manifested itself badly when the machine is cold - I'd say the settling times are longer when the components are cold, increasing the likelihood for the race conditions. @zubozrout - the

Can't confirm fix as I can't find a 3.5.0-16.24 AMD64 build as yet and I'm not keen on building one from scratch. Maybe we need to log the ASUS UX32A problem as separate since although the symptoms are the same as @peterrus his went away with one of the mods here but he had a UX32VD. -- You

ok. Tried v4. That still has the random kernel panic issue with flashing caps lock. When it does boot and get to the login, you can't tell because the screen is black - the original 12.04 kernel problem. Logging in blind, suspending (closing the lid) and then coming out of suspend by opening the

3.5.0-15 does not work on the UX32A. Anecdotally, lp1041883v3 seems to be less stable on a cold UX32A than the last v2. Same errors though. Either kernel panic with flashing caps lock or just a black screen and unresponsive. Even after booting from recovery sometimes hangs. Goes away after system

I've tested the latest build on the UX32A. This seems a bit more stable. I cold-booted after letting it stand overnight and it comes up fine. However, I did have issues last night on first install - it didn't get to a kernel panic with the caps lock light flashing, but the system didn't go to a

Ok. Tried this afternoon, after leaving off all day and without AC power. Booted without AC power and agin have the kernel panic issue and consistently - even from recovery. It's got to be something related to Ivy Bridge and the Intel HD 4000 I think. It gets to recovery, which isn't switching to

@jonathan.ernst Cpas lock flashing means that the kernel panic occurred - which is the original problem we've all been having. I spoke too soon. The problem re-occurred this morning. I removed acpi_osi=Linux and i915.modeset=1 from the boot params in my grub setup and it went away again. So there

I've tested the latest build on my UX32A. It seems stable - but the previous one seemed stable as well until I tried booting again this morning (I did have a few different issues though with yesterday's build - this morning it would occasionally not come up with flashing caps lock flashing, but it

@peterrus - yes, I was talking about today's build. Ok. I started the laptop from a completely cold state. The problem came back with hangs at boot (flashing caps). Even recovery hung. After a while, when the system had warmed up again, the hangs went away. -- You received this bug notification

Just to confirm that this problem also exists for the UX32a. I tried the Quantal 3.5.4 kernel with nomodeset and get the random hangs on boot. Booting off an install on SSD. Recovery booting as always, works fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs,

lp1041883 works for the UX32A as well - at least this particular bug is gone, and the display comes up without nomodeset. Function keys work except for display brightness (expected) and keyboard backlight. Screen switches off when you close the lid and comes back on when you open it again. --

I found this problem also occurs for Jaunty UNR. I'm running on an ASUS 1008HA. Just added a couple of locations to the clock applet. However, the weather values have not changed since I added them to the clock applet configuration. -- Weather applet does not update periodically.
