It must be Murphy, it just happens again and NOT in DOCKING MODE! So I can exclude Docking Station issues...

I made report according to the AMD64 Java to serial already here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rxtx/+bug/361635. That is solved on my side, since I can connect the device over Java to serial bridge successfully. But it still seems to be quit instable on the level below that. It did run stable on former Ubuntu versions 8.10 AMD64 and 8.4 AMD64. I hope that rings a bell to someone. all the best, cue -- 2.6.28-11:ext4:hald:sys_open:security_file_alloc -> cascade of 'bugs' -> CPU stopped https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348731 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
