Title:
  kernel disabled console output and keyboard lights in early boot

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Testing the fix for bug 1096531 on a MacBook Air results in frequent
  boot failures (1 failure in every 3 boots on average for me).

  Seemingly 1-2 seconds after the kernel hands off to userland, the
  kernel freezes. I've tried to get output on a serial console, but no
  joy with this hardware.

  The problem is unrelated to Upstart since I subvert Upstart starting
  by specifying init=... to load a menu system which then starts upstart
  on request. What I see is that the menu displays, then the kernel
  dumps details of new usb/bluetooth devices to the console, then the
  system is dead (no caps light, etc).

  Screenshot attached.

  This problem may be the same as seen by apw on a raring server system he has (this was discussed on #ubuntu-kernel yesterday).
