[Bug 1468107] Re: Kernel Panic on Surface Pro

 

The kernel panic happens on the mainline kernel 3.16 - 4.2.
The kernel 3.13 (Linux 3.13.11-03131111-generic) won't panic, but the builtin wifi is not very stable.

However, I tested kernel 4.3 these days, everything works fine.
My uname: Linux zenozeng-Surface-Pro-2 4.3.0-040300rc1-generic #201509160642 SMP Wed Sep 16 10:44:16 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Title:
  Kernel Panic on Surface Pro

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am using Ubuntu 15.04 on a Surface Pro (1st gen), dual-boting with Windows 8.1 and the linux kernel 3.19 is causing a kernel panic. The last kernel working was 3.16.0-38.
  I couldn't get any stack-trace (maybe apport has one), since my computer froze and i was on the desktop and wasn't on tty.
  The only way I could reproduce is to boot up Ubuntu then open up an application for example Software Updater. After a couple seconds, about like 10, the computer freezes, and a kernel panic happens. I can reproduce both in TTY and on the unity desktop.
  The issue report was made using the 3.16.0-38 kernel, which may have changed some values in the Apport debug information.
