Public bug reported: I had an early problem of Hardy Alpha 6 hanging on boot. I had a problem with Hardy Beta very slow boot and then no wireless or sound even though it recognized both during install.
Somewhere in the bug reports (can't remember which one) I ran across the following work-around. Open the /lib/modules/2.6.24xxx/modules.alias comment out the first two occurences of AES that link to padlock and geode hardware. I did this,saved, exited & rebooted. My wireless and sound were recognized & worked fine and the boot process was about 70- 85 seconds. I don't understand why they were linked to padlock. All worked fine under Gutsy 7.10.
