Comment 14 for bug 14277

yup, sorry to say but it still crashes (i.e. locks) the machine.
I also rebooted using init=/bin/bash, then manually executed some minimal init.d
(mountvirtfs, udev, module-init-tools procfs.sh), then modprobe snd-nm256 and it
still locked the box the same way.
Another thing I tried was "modprobe snd-nm256 force_ac97=1 vaio_hack=1" but also
locked the machine

Too bad I can't get any info out of the box (keyboard is completly dead)

Anything else I could try?
