Bug Description

The system either crashed or was behaving very erratically. I was unable to do nothing either through 2.6.20-13 or 2.6.20-12 . Do not know whether it would qualify as crash or something else. This has happened after I have tried to change the text resolution in BIOS so tht 1024*768 can be done but even there it did not happen & after doing sudo update-grub the old entry is there in /boot/grub/menu.lst hence giving both the dmesg.txt which I saved as well as /boot/grub/menu.lst

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Now that the 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon release of Ubuntu is out, we were wondering if you can still reproduce this issue. And I'm also curious if the crash occurs on boot? or are you doing something which triggers the crash? Could you please download and try the new version of Ubuntu from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download and report back your results. If the issue is still present in the new release, please attach the following information:

* uname -a > uname-a.log
* cat /proc/version_signature > version.log
* dmesg > dmesg.log
* sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log

Please be sure to attach each file as a separate attachment. For more information regarding the kernel team bug policy, please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies . Thanks again and we appreciate your help and feedback.

The crash is not happening anymore. It's pretty good so don't want to disturb anything.
