Comment 28 for bug 44233

Hum...

I believe LG hardware (ODD) is very popular, I have 2 myself. I don´t
believe there is a problem there. So, you might be right about the chipset
issue.

Try finding out the developers of the kernel driver for your chipset and
contact they directly about this issue (at Linux Kernel Mailing List may
be). Reporting it here to Ubuntu folks will only add a step to the process.

Anyway it is a very strange bug... All I can say for now is to avoid PC
Chips in the future. I had problems with their hardware and so many of my
friends. Cheap but not good.
