Comment 159 for bug 509180

I see this problem on a clean U11.10 64bit install on a Thinkpad T420 and disk is no where near full. (As an aside: I dont know if it is related to numerous random lockups which sometimes appear on startup, sometimes appear shortly after desktop-login. Sometimes, they dont happen for hours. )

Linux T420-laptop 3.0.0-13-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 2 13:27:26 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Please let me know if there is a fix and whether anyone else is chasing/fixing T420 random lockups.
