Bug Description

At some point, my dapper stopped booting. I've now decided to upgrade to edgy and the same thing happens on the live CD boot: It freezes on "Loading Hardware Drivers". I rebooted but removed "quiet splash" from the boot parameters and found that it hung with a huge amount of the same errors over the screen: "snd-emu10k1: Suspected sound card removal". Googling this brings up only the following page:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2006-July/000959.html

It seems this patch has stopped dapper and edgy kernel from correctly booting. My soundcard is an M-Audio Delta 1010 card. I am now unable to use Ubuntu at all. It just wont boot.

Do you still see this issue with 7.10 or Hardy?

Hi,

No 7.10 worked ok, at least from a fresh install. I have been meaning
to file another bug though related to multiple sound cards: Gnome
chooses at random which soundcard is the primary sound device. Oddly
enough, pidgin always gets it right.
