Comment 28 for bug 1070427

v-done based on Dmitrijs' comment. If there are further issues I think we should deal with them separately at this point.

@ergo-proxy: The fix for this bug has not (yet?) been backported to 12.10, and may be at least a partial cause of not having linux-generic installed. In other words, I don't think that's "another problem", it's the very problem described in this bug.
