All SRUs verified.

[C de-Avillez (hggdh2)]

no regressions observed

[John Johansen (jjohansen)]

looks good

[Brendan Donegan (brendan-donegan)]

Hardware Certification has started testing this kernel.

[Brendan Donegan (brendan-donegan)]

Hardware Certification have completed testing 53/55 systems with this -proposed kernel. Apologies for the delay, we've had a large burden on our labs and a few teething issues with new tests added, but from the results that have come in we don't detect any regressions. The report, as usual is available at: http://people.canonical.com/~hwcert/sru-testing/wk09_2012/oneiric-proposed.html
