Comment 16 for bug 152820

Ok. I'll open a new bug.
No, i do not have EXACTLY the same hardware configuration as topic starter. BUT!

From september i have reported about my problem in some existing bugreports, and created the new one https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/151088
which even remains unanswered! From the beginning of october!!! So, whats the point to create another one NEW bug report?

Here, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/123789 , i, among many others, reported about boot problem on laptops. Different laptops, different hardware - but one problem.

Here is another report i commented: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/150739

It is not only my problem, or problem of some specific configuration. It is laptop problem, i think.

Here is my case:

"for last half-an-hour tried to boot on 2.6.22-14 kernel in recovery mode. It stops on different places every time, so i do not know, how log/dmesg useful would be. For one attempt i've even saw a user@mycomp sign. When i typed "startx" - KDE started but have freezed on "initializing services" - the second graphics icon."

one more

"Kernel 2.6.22 hangs every time at different places. Sometimes after "Searching for file needed to boot", sometimes even after a type "startx", sometimes on another points of booting progress."

I have Asus X50M. Nvidia GeForce GO 6100. Upgrade to Gutsy from original sources in Adept Manager

Sorry for, maybe, too demandful post, but i am just tired of this. I use 2.6.20-15-generic for now, and i cann't install nvidia graphics driver on this, i cann't open .mdb files from MS Access...

So many problems hard to solve, if you are not supermegaarchy system administrator. is it user friendly OS? i just don't want to install MS products again...
