Bug Description
I've had several bugs since installing Ubuntu 10.10 alpha and alpha2. I'm not sure if the problem was the same though. Usually the bug reporting mechanism fails and I can't send the problem report. This is the first time I've been able to report a problem using the OS utilities. I've had random instability about twice a week since installing Ubuntu 10.10 alpha about 2 months ago.
I am not a developer. I am a sysadmin doing testing at home, while studying for the LPIC level 1 certification exam. This bug did not cause any serious problems for me, besides having to reboot. I just wanted to report this bug since it is a pre-release alpha version. I did not have this problem with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Not sure if it makes a difference, but I have a multiboot system with Windows XP, Debian 5, Ubuntu 10.04 alpha on the primary drive with the Grub boot loader, and a secondary drive with Red Hat 6 beta. Ubuntu 10.10 alpha is the main OS I use on a daily basis.

pbdude, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http:// cdimage. ubuntu. com/releases/ .
If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications- >Accessories- >Terminal) . It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.
apport-collect -p linux <replace- with-bug- number>
Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text. Please let us know your results.
Thanks in advance.
