As petski points out, this is very likely the same issue as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157691 because:

  - it  affects the HP 6710b (comment #3)
  - "nosmp" avoids the bug (comment #20)
  - crash is related to lid event

User-mode code changes are not a fix for a kernel panic, so any hotkey-
setup or similar changes are at best a band-aid.

There is a kernel fix upstream:
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=74b5820808215f65b70b05a099d6d3c969b82689

I also ported this patch to 2.6.24-24-generic.  The patched file is in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hotkey-
setup/+bug/157691/comments/58
