assigning to tmb, because using an older kernel "solves" the problem

CC: (none) => marja11
Assignee: bugsquad => tmb
Source RPM: recent Mageia updates (July 10 and later) => kernel-desktop-3.8.13.4-1.mga3

Marja, do they have 2 separated partitions for / and /usr?

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago.
http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ 

Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
