A search on the Dapper problem turned up the solution. Apparently the problem is due to the R31 using the same controller (the i8042) for the keyboard, mouse and power management, and occurs every time something polls the battery. The Wrong Solution is to pass i8042.nomux=1 to the kernel - add it to the #defoptions line in /boot/grub/menu.lst, run "sudo update-grub", and reboot (I can vouch for the fact that this works). The Right Solution is to set this as the default in the next release of the kernel - presumably this is what happened with dapper.
Hope this helps, James. -- feisty trackpoint false clicks & movement https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84119 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
