Bug Description
Recently I upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10. Now the computer boots only with the default kernel and acpi=off or with the 2.6.28 kernel left from 11.04 with default options. If I try to boot with kernel 3.0, the computer freezes one or two seconds after I hit Enter in the Grub menu. The caps lock control LED on the keyboard doesn't respond to the caps lock button. The machine also doesn't react to Ctrl+Alt+Delete. This issue seems to have no relation to upgrading since booting from the LUbuntu 11.10 Desktop CD leads to the same results while it has always worked with the previous releases.
