Comment 5 for bug 138380

Hi Adrian,

The Hardy Heron kernel was recently uploaded for testing. It was synced with the mainline 2.6.24-rc3 kernel. I know you tested with the latest stable release of the mainline kernel, but was hoping you'd give the Hardy kernel a quick test. We'd really appreciate if you could just verify this issue still exists in the currently developer Hardy kernel. Unfortunately, the Hardy Heron Alpha1 LiveCD was released with the older 2.6.22 kernel. You'll have to manually install the newer Hardy Heron kernel in order to test. This should not be the case for Alpha2. However, here are the instructions to install (if you choose to do so):

1) edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list and add the following line:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy main restricted

2) sudo apt-get update
3) sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.24-1-generic
4) reboot and select the new kernel from the grub menu

After you've tested, please feel free to revert back - ie boot into the old kernel, sudo apt-get remove linux-image-2.6.24-1-generic, and remove the line from /etc/apt/sources.list . Please update this report with your results. Thanks in advance!
