OK, we will try to narrow down the mainline kernel release on which this started occurring, or if it even happens on mainline kernels; if we can't reproduce the problem with the mainline kernels, then it's probably something related to an Ubuntu kernel patch.
If possible please test the following kernels, which you can find here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ First, test this to see if it works (it should): http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.35-maverick/ Then, test this to see if it works (it shouldn't!): http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.38-natty/ Finally, but *only* if these two kernels behave as predicted, test this (this is the chronological middle point, so we will be doing a sort of "binary" search or "bisection" of mainline kernels): http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.36-maverick/ Depending on whether the "midpoint" kernel works or fails, you'd then test the kernels on the "good" side or the "bad" side. You can do this yourself, or you can report your results back and I can tell you which one to test. If you want to do it on your own, just remember that -rc kernels go *before* the actual final releases: v2.6.36-rc6-maverick v2.6.36-maverick v2.6.36.1-natty (whatever) For this testing, please don't give the kernel any additional parameters; we want to test out-of-the-box behavior. Thanks and please let me know the results from the first three kernels! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/801840 Title: MCE Kernel Panic on kernel 2.6.38 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/801840/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
