Hi Christopher. I was unable to test the Saucy images and the latest mainline kernel, as they refuse to boot/install on the Amilo due to lack of PAE support.
jani@kingugidora:~$ LC_ALL=C sudo dpkg --install linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic_3.11.0-031100rc6.201308181835_i386.deb (Reading database ... 818498 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic (from linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic_3.11.0-031100rc6.201308181835_i386.deb) ... This kernel does not support a non-PAE CPU. dpkg: error processing linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic_3.11.0-031100rc6.201308181835_i386.deb (--install): subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 Examining /etc/kernel/postrm.d . run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools 3.11.0-031100rc6-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub 3.11.0-031100rc6-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic_3.11.0-031100rc6.201308181835_i386.deb I guess the only (unimportant) question remaining is how come I was able to boot -pae kernels on this very same device back in the pre-release times (3.2.0-[<23]) - perhaps those earlier kernels didn't properly detect the lack of PAE? The wireless now (with the current 3.2.0-52-generic #78-Ubuntu) seems to somehow work without wistron_btns. I'm not sure how to deal with the tags & bug status in this case, so I'll leave it to your discretion. If you have further ideas to test, I'll be happy to provide, but closing this report (perhaps as 'Invalid') is also fine by me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926012 Title: With a -pae kernel, freeze during boot when wistron_btns loaded To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/926012/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
