just got the 32 kernel, everything is good so far.
2.6.32-2
Archived thread 1314648 from Lucid Lynx Testing and Discussion (CLOSED). Markdown source: Lucid_Lynx_Testing_and_Discussion_(CLOSED)/thread_1314648_2.6.32-2.md
Upgraded yesterday, I think suspend is broken on my laptop. After a suspend the laptop didn't wake up, then wouldn't boot past the BIOS POST until I powered off and booted with no battery in!
Other than that, though, disk performance looks much better than under .31 which created huge amounts of IOWAIT for no apparent reason.
Works well for me too! Performance is good, but for some reason I get strange colours around the usplash white Ubuntu logo :(

Virtualbox is not working though. And I am not going to compile it..

Yes I get this during the kernel install

quick virtualbox fix for 3.0.8 3.0.10 uses this fix upstream
I got it this morning on a 9.10 upgrade install and on an upgrade from from 9.04. They both seem to perform very well with it.
Quick question. What's the Alsa version in 2.6.32? I've heard it's 1.0.21, but I can't seem to find it anywhere to confirm. The reason I ask is because of the X-Fi I have.

nvidia 190.42 fails to build for me with 2.6.32-2 and with 2.6.32-rc6.
2.6.32-rc5 is ok, but the nvidia module was built a couple of weeks ago with the karmic tool chain.
The 2.6.32-2 install failed last night (same problem as below).
Here's part of the output from dpkg when I tried to install 2.6.32-rc6 this morning:
Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms

.......(bad exit status: 10)

[fail]
In the nvidia make log, I see this:

Anyone else experience the same thing?
Back to using 2.6.32-rc5 for now.

Ok, that it explains the psychedelic phenomenon, I was seeing. I thought it had to do with xsplash.

That is, you can't build the modules required to run a Virtualbox host?
I can't make it *boot* on Virtualbox 3.0.8 OSE with dynamic recompilation. It hangs around the time it tries to initialize SMP, even if I set "nosmp." There's a big delay after "Checking 'hlt' instruction... OK." of several seconds. Then "SMP alternatives: switching to UP code" and a maxed-out virtual CPU.
I think I'll try upgrading before trying to figure out what's causing this; make sure it's not a fixed Virtualbox bug.
The recent update including the headers allows Virtualbox 3.0.8 OSE to work just fine.
Booted 2.6.32-rC5 Tried to install/upgrade to 2.6.32-2 nvidia module 190.42 build failed
Then tried:
export IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1This didn't work. However (to cut a long story short), booting 2.6.32-2 to the console and reinstalling nvidia 190.42 gave me a working system again.

fack... lol
I use 3.0.10 now. And I love the USB support.

Same issue here. Did you file a bug report?

I have the exact same problem with VirtualBox 3.0.10 (non-OSE). The same virtual machine boots with kernel 2.6.31-14, though.

Me too, I have the same problem
work fine here
curiously, aptitude install -f want to install 31.14 again even if 31.15 is installed

Aptitude will upgrade any version installed if there is a newer candidate.
Curiously, where did you get 31.15? It must be not Ubuntu as I don't recall seeing any. Ubuntu's version numbering is 31-14 not 31.14.
BTW running guest Kubuntu lucid 32-3 kernel here on VBox 3.0.10 PUEL on karmic host 32-3 kernel all 64-bit VTx/AMD enabled with no problem. The only thing I can see different from others is I don't use dkms.

Came through an update.

That's interesting. Even packages.ubuntu.com search does not show it and it doesn't show in aptitude search either

It's from Karmic via the backports----
Well, 2.6.32-2 goes black on Thinkpad with i830 video. The xorg didn't change. Workaround, boot 2.6.31-14 which still works on the same install and same intel video driver.
Another workaround is to edit the boot to use nomodeset. Modeset works on 2.6.31-14 but not with 2.6.32-2.
Do note 2.6.32-2 on one of my other test pc's works. It has i845 video.
Karmic went thru a bunch of changes where xorg stayed the same, the linux-image changed and the i830 would go black. Eventually the karmic linux-image changed and the i830 started working again. Even the i845 a couple times, and ati for a time. On the i830 karmic RC works O.K. and lucid did as well until 2.6.32-2.
Launchpad bug directions say to run apport. Apport? Ever try to run apport with a black screen? Or ubuntu-bug either? So I did boot with nomodeset and tried to do ubuntu-bug, however after gathering all the data and selecting to send the report to development it says "Oops, something went wrong with launchpad" so no bug report.
Wonder what the next update will do. Lucid's just getting started....

Ah, seems like 2.6.32-3 corrected the problem.
Black screen on 2.6.32-2 and 2.6.32-3 on IBM Thinkpad R31, i830 video just after selecting the linux-image from the grub boot menu.
Select linux-image 2.6.31-14 works O.K. Same xorg driver so the problem is in the Lucid linux-image.
Trying to enter a launchpad bug, it says to use "apport" or "ubuntu-bug". Neither work with a black screen. I've tried using them by ssh from another computer, but neither worked before with a command line interface which is what you get with ssh. They say enter "k" for keep but expect a fully working x-windows screen to be able to read my response. If I had a fully working x-windows I wouldn't have a problem.
Workaround for 2.6.32-2 and -3, replace "quiet splash" with "nomodeset".
2.6.32-2 and -3 working on Compaq ati video.
2.6.32-2 no sound on IBM ThinkCentre A30 with i845 video.
Hmm... just wait for the next updates...

I noticed it resumes more quickly from suspend, pretty much instantly. But after resuming I sometimes get screen corruption with Intel GM45 (i915) graphics. It flickers across large areas of the screen when things change on-screen.
