Hi Chris,
Can you also run the following command from a Terminal (Applications- >Accessories- >Terminal) which will automatically gather and attach additional kernel debug information.
apport-collect -p linux-image-`uname -r` 388216
Additionally it would be great if you could test the latest mainline kernel build. It would just be good to confirm this bug also exists in the upstream kernel as well and make sure we notify the upstream developers accordingly. See https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds for more information, I'd suggest trying the latest, 2.6.30-rc8 as of this posting. Thanks.
