On Thu, 26 Jan 2012 13:49:02 -0800, Leann Ogasawara <...@canonical.com

Overall status is reported at the first link below. Burn down for
Precise Alpha-2 is at the second link below. Burndown for the cycle is
at the third link:

* https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/ReleaseStatus/Precise
* http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-precise/canonical-kernel-distro-team-precise-al pha-2.html
* http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-precise/canonical-kernel-distro-team.html

== What was done engineering wise? ==

We've rebased to the latest v3.2.2 upstream stable kernel and intend to
upload by EOD Friday to make the Alpha-2 milestone freeze deadline.
This upload will also include a fix for the armel omap boot failure
regression which was recently reported (LP:921934). Additionally, we've
also backported and applied and an updated upstream jack detection patch
set which is landing in v3.3.

We have a large number of work items targeted for the Alpha2 release, of
which 92% (152/165) are completed. The remaining items are not release
critical and will likely be moved out to Beta-1.

== What's about to land that might impact the other teams? ==

As noted above, we've rebased to upstream v3.2.2 and would appreciate
any testing once it lands in the archive. We'd also appreciate testing
of the new jack detection patches. Please refer to the following wiki
for more information.

Hi everybody.

I test Precise Pangolin on my laptop.

I read that Ubuntu will start in 10 seconds.
Can you explain why I get this ?

Ubuntu was aiming to boot in 10s on a specific piece of hardware in
Lucid. Actually we fell short of 10s as I recall, I think it was 12s.
That assumed a specific application mix. For example I have schroot
installed which adds about 10s on its own to boot.

Nothing about 10 seconds in that link...
Sounds like a non-hidden grub timeout... see /etc/default/grub
