Comment 9 for bug 1258837

I've disabled suspend on the laptop and continued to use the laptop so that even the screensaver doesn't kick in. I've also removed resetafter kernel parameter.

I booted the laptop with both kernels, ran "tail -f /var/log/kern.log" in a terminal and left it running until I saw error messages (and when I did, I ran "uname -a" to ensure I was running with the right kernel):

Running with Saucy's kernel:
