Public bug reported:
I recently updated my kernel packages to 3.2.0-31 (I'm using the
generic-pae flavour). I have a dual boot laptop with grub2. This has
always worked fine, but having upgraded to 3.2.0-31, grub fails to boot
the system. There are no error messages on screen - after a couple of
seconds the screen just goes blank and stays like that. The machine is
still alive to some extent - I cannot do CTRL-ALT-F1 to get to a command
prompt, but I can do CTRL-ALT-DELETE which will reboot the machine. If
I choose "Older versions of Linux" from the Grub menu and select
3.2.0-30 (or older versions), then the system boots up as normal. If I
remember correctly, this problem is intermittent - I think I have
occasionally managed to boot up 3.2.0-31 successfully, but, normally, it
crashes as described above. I have currently uninstalled the 3.2.0-31
kernel until this problem is fixed.
