I tried a bunch of different configurations. still using iwlwifi.5000 "can't remember the rest of it at the moment I'm doing some cadd work so I'm in windows atm. its the 5000 chip set series loader for iwlagn.
at any rate I installed ubuntu 8.10 32bit with great success many fewer issues. installed nvidia-glx 180 180.22 specifically. all was fine for about a half dozen boot cycles. then all of a sudden kernel panic. it seems to be stopping when it loads up the 5100 chipset. this is an integrated agn and bluetooth set which once booted works flawlessly. I am no longer getting the same errors that I was during boot and it also solves the horrible boot up beeping caused by usplash from the 64bit install this is an officially filed bug and affects the 1530 xps as well as a few other laptops running 64 bit configs. but it's a bit slower. I still haven't been able to reinitialize my nvidia drivers. ANY of them under my 64 bit install, and also it appears that the two installs are interacting strangly. @Jamin W. Collins what is your video configuration? i.e. what is your hardware and what driver are you using? your lock ups from what you said are happening post boot? my kernel panics have all happened during boot. specifically during initialization of my iwlagn and bluetooth. However, after they initialize is when x should load so it may be an x issue due to nvidia. -- Thinkpad T61p hardlock flashing caps lock https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300693 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
