Bug Description

When running the command

$ echo enable,0x00ffffff | sudo tee /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey

in the terminal, or having the line

$ echo enable,0x00ffffff > /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey

in /etc/rc.local and logging in, Ubuntu 10.10 RC with 2.6.35-22 reports a serious kernel error. Those commands are, admittedly, a workaround to allow the hardware volume keys on a ThinkPad laptop (X60 Tablet, in my case) to change the software volume, but this issue did not occur with kernel 2.6.32-25 on Ubuntu 10.04.

Jesse B. Hannah, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. Maverick reached EOL on April 2012.
Please see this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

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 in a supported release? If so, 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/KernelMainlineBuilds . 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.
