2.6.26-19, same result. I dug up my four-year old notebook in the same series as the one I have. Much the same, with Intel graphics, Pentium M and so on. One major difference is that it is single-core, unlike this dual-core machine. I did a fresh install of Hardy on it. And no matter how much I push it (and it's not a terribly hard machine to push) it stays up, and with none at all of the "stuttering" and other secondary issues I've been having.
That implies two possibilities: something goes wrong with the upgrade to Hardy from Gutsy; some file, some setting is left over and somehow manages to cause this. Or, this is an issue specifically with multi-core machines. When time permits I will do a clean reinstall on this machine as well (oh joy...). If that resolves the issue, good. If not, I'm afraid I will have to start looking elsewhere for an OS to run; I've had this machine only semi-functional for almost two months now with no hint of a resolution so the situation is becoming untenable. -- Hardy kernel causes overheating https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223081 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
