Comment 36 for bug 510571

I've had diverging reports on whether this occurs in Lucid. One stating that it boots fine with acpi, and my own testing which seems to indicate that it doesn't:
I've booted a liveCD of lucid and ran a lucid CD in vbox from there, it does get further than the karmic/jaunty version of virtualbox, but it instead stalls by the end of the plymouth screen, after pausing for a long while at the point where it stopped completely on karmic/jaunty.

I've tested applying the patch here as well, and it does make a difference and it instead boots fine. But I'm curious as to the divergence of reports..

Attaching a debdiff for Lucid as well, and uploading packages to my PPA for testing.
