Kernel 2.6.32 helped the situation, definitely. But unfortunately I ran into som other compatibility problems with both PPA mainline-versions and custom-compiled versions from upstream (missing App-armor, somewhat strange/altered fs-mounting-behaviour at boot, readahead not working, extremely slow hibernation). In the end I decided to stick to the 2.6.31-based kernels distributed with Ubuntu Karmic. I guess things will get better when Lucid comes around.. -- Very poor desktop response (high latency) during I/O-load with SATA+NCQ https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343371 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
