[Bug 561387] [NEW] 2..32-20 kernel locks up on boot in less then a second

[HughDaniel]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.32-20-386

This new kernel ALWAYS locks up my test box (ThinkPad T43) hard, so the only data I have is on the screen when it crashes.
The previous kernel (2.6.32.19) still works just file, as have ALL the Lucid & Karmic kernels before.
There is some sort of panic ("Opps"?) at 0.3... seconds where I see:

...acpi_battery_update_async+0x19/0x4e
..._spin_locks_irqsave+0x2f/0x50
...run_one_entry+0x6a/0x190
...
... EIP: ... acpi_ex_read_data_from_field+0x131/0x168 ...

If you need/want more I have to take a photo, as there are no serial ports on this laptop.
He last console message is:

[    0.... it just screen blanked on me, so SOMETHING lives, but it's not on the net and no keyboard typing has any effect...
No!  The Power Button refreshed the screen, so something deep in there is still running
[    0.945021] Freeing initrd memory: 12719k freed

and that's it.

  If you want more detail, email me.  Note the various details that
ubuntu-bug has gathered are from another Lucid test box I am running
(T42p) and so are of suspect value in debugging this.
