We would like to review the details of the panic. Do you have a screen shot, digital image or the text details of the panic that you could provide?

Hi,
since 3 weeks I have tried to track the reasons for a kernel panic I had with my Thinkpad T450s.

Unfortunately, the panic happen only one in many hours and isolating the true reasons was very difficult. I'm quite sure now that it's not related to intel graphics nor the intel wifi driver (graphics was my ideal suspect).

What I have found (95% certitude):
- the panic occur only on when on battery
- removing the TLP package solve the issue (so, it's probably a driver flag set by TLP that causes the issue)
- Upgrading to upstream kernel 4.3RC4/5 definitely solve the problem.

FYI: when the panic occurs, the screen/image completely freezes, no kernel logs, no magic key working.

Hope it helps !
Lorenzo

Ubuntu Wily crashes on several occasions but intermittantly during boot on my Acer Aspire V15 Nitro. I have the F12 boot menu enabled. This problem also exists when booting from DVD or USB-pendrive. I had these problems from the firsts attempts to run the Live USB or installing a fresh new system.

***No such problems with 15.04.***

What happens is that the boot process ends and the system reboots itself. When not quick enough pressing F12, the system will boot into M$-Windows. Otherwise the F12 boot menu comes up. Today, at the 4th or 5th attempt, Ubuntu came up at last.
