[Bug 1010854] Re: [HP EliteBook 8540p] linux-crashdump not producing coredump nor rebooting

 

Christoph Paasch, thank you for providing the requested information. No
need to further apport-collect unless requested specifically.

Despite this, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [HP EliteBook 8540p] linux-crashdump not producing coredump nor
  rebooting

Status in “linux-meta” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since Ubuntu Precise, linux-crashdump isn't working anymore for me. When I trigger a crash with:
  echo 'c' > /proc/sysrq-trigger

  the machine freezes. I see the disk-light blinking for a short time.
  But then, the host does not reboot automatically, and no dump-file is
  in /var/crash. With Oneiric everything worked as expected.
