Hi Chris,

> Well, it seems to be a another one off event. It's the same hardware as
before, and it was booting from a USB stick containing Fedora 20 final test
candidate 2 which uses kernel 3.11.8. An immediate reboot did not reproduce the
problem, nor multiple subsequent reboots. I think I previously mentioned a
preponderance of these events happen when booting from USB sticks.

Ok, thanks, that makes sense. So at least one problem is still there, but
possibly very difficult to hit.

> It would be nice to have an identical model for this testing. I suspect most users wouldn't go to the trouble to report the occasional, seemingly one off,
events like this. So unfortunately it's  uncertain if the hardware I have has a
unique problem, or if it's a model specific behavior.

I will keep this in mind next time I see this particular model. It is also
possible that the SMC needs to be reset after having testing various more or
less successful patches. Given the tiny cross-section, it looks like this one
can rest for now.

Thanks,
Henrik
