Well, to add some more confusion to this bug... The last kernel panic I experienced was on the first boot up after upgrading the kernel to 2.6.24-19. After that, no kernel panics whatsoever. Also processor hiccups dissapeared somewhere in the beginning of August. I've tested the 2.6.24-17 and *-18 kernels each one for a day, daily common use, no problems with any of the current kernels (although Firefox was crashing every second time I was playing Flash videos in *-17 kernel). I have Dell Latitude D400 laptop, no non-free drivers.
One more thing, kernel panics gradually disappeared over time, at least that's how it seemed to me in my case. So, could it be that this bug is not directly the kernels fault, but some common and crucial package that can be found on all Ubuntu variants? -- Linux kernel 2.6.24-12 lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204996 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
