Bug Description
Startup from cold gives flash-bang logo in Notification Area about kernel problem. Has occurred 2 out of 2 times - upgraded to 10.10 beta from 10.04 (latest patches) yesterday (05/09/2010). No other issues noticed yet, sound wi-fi etc still working as per out of box. This is my first bug - I assume the apport report is being attached automatically; I will also attach the logs described below.
I have an internal Gobi 2000 3G card which was working under 10.04 with some tweaking (gobi_loader etc). I only mention this as the crash looks like it occurs around the USB detection phase, right after bluetooth, and the Gobi is logically the next device:

I note that the gobi_loader is not initialising this device currently (haven't played with trying to tweak this yet - but basically once firmware is loaded properly device 05c6:9224 should become 05c6:9225).

horzle, thank you for reporting this bug 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.
