Comment 98 for bug 418933

I had the same issue, I have an Acer Aspire 6930G.

Karmic didn't even start installing with the live cd without acpi=off, I guess it needs net connection to get along.

I have tested both 32 and 64 bit fixed kernels from http://people.canonical.com/~apw/lp386468-karmic/ and they work just fine.

I second importance of this bug being raised please? And hopefully resolving in the next update?
