ehowton, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Natty reached EOL on October 2012. /wiki.ubuntu. com/Releases
Please see this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https:/
We were wondering if this is still an issue in a supported release? If so, as per http:// support. lenovo. com/en_ US/default. page a newer BIOS version (2.27) is available for your computer. If you upgrade this do you still have a problem?
If so, could you please test for this 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 please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications- >Accessories- >Terminal) , as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:
apport-collect -p linux <replace- with-bug- number>
Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the kernel in the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested and remove the tag: testing
needs-upstream-
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 text: testing
needs-upstream-
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: fixed-upstream fixed-upstream- VERSION- NUMBER
kernel-
kernel-
where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested.
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: bug-exists- upstream bug-exists- upstream- VERSION- NUMBER
kernel-
kernel-
where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested.
If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags: unable- to-test- upstream unable- to-test- upstream- VERSION- NUMBER
kernel-
kernel-
where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested.
Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.
