[03:58] <_MMA_> Hi guys. Ive been testing the -lowlatency and -generic kernels. On every one I get random shutdowns on boot. Id say 1/3rd of the time.
[03:58] <_MMA_> Should I report a bug?
[04:28] <madmax> hello there... i'm encountering a kernel BUG when i try to run ubuntu 6.10 on my laptop... when it mounts local filesystems at startup it says "[17179606.332000]  BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0!"
[04:29] <madmax> i've just installed ubuntu from the ubuntu desktop cd
[04:29] <pmjdebruijn> madmax, you should probably file a bug, including your dmesg
[04:30] <pmjdebruijn> madmax, don't forget the mention your system specs (motherboard, bios, cpu(s))
[04:30] <pmjdebruijn> madmax, add an 'lspci'
[04:30] <madmax> ok... i'm not good at filing bugs... what's the dmesg again?
[04:30] <madmax> i can't run anything... the system won't boot
[04:30] <madmax> except from cd
[04:31] <madmax> and partitioning worked from the cd so it did mount them at least once
[04:32] <madmax> where do i file the bug?
[04:33] <pmjdebruijn> madmax, 'dmesg' on a Terminal
[04:33] <pmjdebruijn> madmax, launchpad
[04:33] <madmax> can't... the system won't boot
[04:34] <pmjdebruijn> madmax, use the livecd
[04:34] <madmax> ah... i think i know where it locks up... it definitely mounts the root partition and it probably locks up when it tries to mount the fat32 partition i also have
[04:34] <pmjdebruijn> madmax, then reinstall without mounting that partition
[04:34] <pmjdebruijn> that's still weird though, and shouldn't happen
[04:35] <madmax> annoying... but i'll try
[04:42] <madmax> the livecd uses the same kernel that it installs, right?
[04:43] <madmax> i was able to mount all my partitions without any problem
[04:43] <Mithrandir> madmax: it does, yes.
[04:44] <madmax> i'll try reinstalling
