I have not been able to test the upstream kernel - it seems to be unable
to set my graphics card to produce any output.

However, I have been able to create a fresh install of 12.04 on a
different hard disk - the other hardware exactly the same, just a
different hard disk. I started with the original 12.04 CD and then took
all the available updates including 3.2.0-56 so that the setup should
have been as near as possible the same as the one that caused trouble.

The result is - it seems to run just fine. Hence at the moment my
assumption is that the problem was due to some unidentified mishap
during the update to 3.2.0-56.

I am intending to do an install of 13.10 to a different hard disk. When
I have that established as a working environment I will  try a surface
scan of the disk with the problem setup and perhaps try to uninstall and
reinstall 3.2.0-56 to see what happens.

I do have a copy of the relevant kernel log showing call stack dumps and
'BUG' messages that I could add if you think it would be of any help.
Otherwise I will update this report if I can find anything that might be
of interest when I am in a position to investigate further.
