- 
- I have already tried to use some mainline kernels from
- http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D. I have tried
- v3.18-rc2-utopic, v3.18-rc1-utopic and v3.17.1-utopic. Either I could
- not boot into the specified kernel or the bug still existed.
- 
- If there is any more information I could give or any debugging work that
- I could do, please let me know.
