Bug Description
lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.10
Release: 8.10
I have a sony vaio laptop, PCG-GRT816M with 1Gb ram. Since I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10, the system freezes at power-on and power-off. When it is freezed, if i push the Enter key on the keyboard, the system continue to boot for a while, until it freezes again. To complete the boot process I have to press the Enter key at least 6 times (only once for the power-down process). I did not noticed anything strange into kernel log.
It does not happen with the 2.6.24 kernel, which works perfectly.
With the new kernel I also noticed that Xorg seems to use much more CPU resource than with the older kernel.
