I'll have a look later. I feel I should add that this particular laptop has been running on various versions of Ubuntu successfully for several years - this is the first such problem I've had. I suspect that some hardware support has been dropped or changed in this kernel
- modules, which is why I'm having the problems.
I took all options and disabled this, that and the other on the boot-command-line, and with vga=0x0318 acpi=0ff noapic nolapic noapm
it booted the new kernel OK. All I need to do now, is work out which of these options is actually making it work, and once I've done that, if there's any work arounds to remove the need for the command-line flag.
