Hi Pete, Are you able to test the latest mainline kernel on this laptop? It would be good to know if the bug is already fixed upstream.
If you can test the latest mainline kernel, the .deb can be downloaded from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.3-rc3-precise/ You basically just need to download the .deb and run: sudo dpkg -i linux-image-3.3.0-030300rc3-generic_3.3.0-030300rc3.201202082335_amd64.deb Full details about testing the mainline kernel are available at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/932725 Title: Kernel hard locks (blinking caps lock key) after sitting idle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/932725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
