Hi Chris, I am running LTS 10.04 on my laptop, and yes, the bug still exists...even with the latest kernel installed and running. I am presently running a patched kernel which eliminates the bug completely. The patch was found at the following bug link: #578506. After patching EC.C and a makefile I believe, I compiled my own kernel, and it's running well. Reports from users on Bug 578506 indicate the bug in question is still active even in the latest 12.04 release.
I suppose you could consider this particular bug report a duplicate of 578506. However, closing this bug out as "Duplicate" certainly won't help resolve the bug. But there is a wealth of information (much of it I don't understand) in the comments of bug 578506 what clearly describe what the problem is, and how to fix it with a patch...that being said, I can't patch my kernel every time it upgrades...and I certainly can't expect my family (who I've transitioned to Ubuntu) to patch their kernels should they encounter this bug. So I'd like to see the fix incorporated into the Ubuntu code. Thanks for your time and thanks for your efforts to make Ubuntu better! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/599105 Title: ACPI Errors and massive System Lag Acer Aspire 5735 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/599105/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
