Comment 15 for bug 424142

This bug is also effecting my Compaq 6715b laptop running the Karmic beta. I have attached the output from lshw, lspci, and uname. The bug has the unfortunate side effect of disrupting the new usplash for Karmic, and that is probably my biggest concern! I found a post from Linus Torvalds on kernel.org thoroughly explaining the address collision bug, and that (in my interpretation) the fix won't be applied until after 2.6.31. Will the final release of Karmic be released with 2.6.31? It would be a shame to release it broken. Here is the URL for Linus' post on kernel.org: http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/39988/
