Hi there, I always have to use the noapic option. I've had to do this since moving 7.10 to 8.04. I've continued to use noapic through 8.10, 9.04 and 9.10. Occasionally I've tested without noapic. Without the noapic option, the laptop does not boot. It appears to freeze before getting to the GDM.
On lucid, no joy trying to boot without noapic - the grub, disappears, fsck messages appear , black screen with flashing cursor, before cursor disappears and computer freezes. With noapic boot and use of the computer is fine - i.e. grub disappears, fsck messages appear, black screen with flashing cursor, more black screen, then GDM displays. Its just the wireless that doesn't work. -- rt2500pci wireless regression in lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539794 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
