It seems to me this issue lies in the linux kernel. Every distro I've tried which uses kernel 2.6.24 or later exhibits the same symptoms. I am running Hardy with a custom DSDT which prohibits the system from locking up; however, the battery monitor seems to work only intermittently, and the CPU frequency scaling does not work at all. I am running Gutsy in parallell, using it when I'm running on battery.
I will probably reinstall the computer with Gutsy, then upgrade to Hardy and run on the old (Gutsy) kernel. I've tried the latest Ibex beta and the issue persists, so I have no real hopes this issue will be resolved (anytime soon). Should probably learn to roll a custom kernel, but I'm too lazy... -- [Gusty/ Heron Development] system crashes on ac power unless acpi=off, but runs on battery https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148637 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
