Problems with Ubuntu Lucid on N900 caused by Canonical compiler choices

The problem is that the N900, one of the only Arm A8 devices in general distribution, has a buggy Thumb2 implementation. This means that Ubuntu versions higher than Karmic are unstable and crash-prone on the N900. He goes on to explain why those decisions cause particular problems. However, Alan is responding (and quotes) a link to a video showing off a very nice ARM-based netbook, running Ubuntu. Unfortunately, the ARM-based Psion netBook in your editor's drawer is unlikely to make the cut.
