Hi vnieto,

Just curious how often this Warning is displayed? How reproducible is it? Does this still remain with the newer 2.6.31-10 Karmic kernel? Also, do you witness any other ill effects after seeing this Warning? Thanks.

Hi,

I'm seeing this warning on 'almost' every resume from suspend, until now i have no ill effects AFAIK

uname -r: 2.6.31-14-generic
My Machine: Compaq Presario F700

This must be some kind of regression, I've been using ubuntu since 8.04 and never seen this warning before.

Agreed, this effects me as well in a similar way.

Still present in current 10.04 kernel: 2.6.32-16-generic
