Comment 3 for bug 489887

Hello

Since reporting this bug I have upgraded to 10.04, I have run the latest
updates via the update manager and this problem is still an issue for me.

As a non-technical user of ubuntu I'm afraid I don't know what Maverick is
or how I should update my system in any other way.

Thanks for you help.

Michael
