Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: acpi
Steps to reproduce:
1 - Make sure laptop/netbook is connected to power
2 - Boot Ubuntu
3 - Connect to a network using network cable
4 - Unplug network cable (physically disconnect from laptop/netbook)
5 - Unplug power cable
Result:
Ubuntu crashes/hangs/freezes.
Laptop needs to be shut down by force.
Notes:
- This crash only happens if at some point a network cable is connected to the
computer.
- It's possible to have either the network cable or the power cable unplugged
(also alternatively) various times without issue, but if at some point both are
disconnected Ubuntu crashes.
- This issue has been reported previously for previous versions of Ubuntu, I
was however unable to retrieve any original bug report. If I remember correctly
the bug report was closed because starting from 9,04 (I think) the issue
disappeared miraculously. However it's now back (I believe since 10.04)
- Tested on HP Mini 1020LA
