Public bug reported: I've tried to install Ubuntu Dapper in my laptop sony vaio vgn-s5hp, but unlucky. The graphical installation freezes at 15% and I tried alternate build. Installation worked fine, but i obtained an "Kernel panic - not syncing..."
Anyway, Ubuntu Hoary has been the only distribution I've been able to install. it works, but I can't use sound. (ALSA does not support this chipset in this kernel version). I can say that is not a kernel problem, because if I rebuild a kernel from the official sources from http://kernel.org the laptop works. I've tried Ubuntu Edgy Knot 2 and it freezes in the boot time.
