Comment 17 for bug 231575

Hi,

I've tried a fresh install of intrepid ibex alpha 5 and upgraded everything as of 13.31 UK time on 13 Sept 2008

uname -a reports
Linux intrepidibex 2.6.27-3-generic #1 SMP Wed Sep 10 16:02:00 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

The boot drive is on SATA, the DVD drive is on IDE.

After about an hour of uptime the usual messgaes were repeated:

Is there anything else you would like to try? Will you open a bug report on the 2.6.27 kernel?

Is there anyway of following up this report on the linux kernel mailing list
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0805.2/4003.html

Cheers,
