Comment 32 for bug 544139

Hi all,
I'm also affected by this bug, or at least encounter the exact same symptoms as Damien described in #9
The machine is a laptop Acer Aspire 1692 and the kernel is 2.6.32.24-generic-pae
The distrib is an up to date Lucid 10.04, ( fresh install + updates)
I did not perform enough boots to extract a significant statistical data about failing / successful boots, but i m attaching a few logs
of good and bad boots. for some of them i set 'debug init='/sbin/init --verbose' ' kernel options.

Like Damien i'm not sure how much this bug is related to #554172 but an upstart fix has been committed in lucid-proposed, so i suggest some of us install that fix to see if it has any effects on this bug. I did it and i still did not notice the bug after a few boots (not enough to be significant). The logs of these one are attached as well.

If the upstart fix reveals not to work in this case, do you think that a temporary work around could be downgrading gdm / consolekit and kernel to debian squeeze version, or do you think it would break the distribution stability ?

Cheers

Fred
