Christopher, thank you for your comment on the outdated BIOS version. I completely see your point about good quality of bug reports.
It may be some time until I can update our BIOSes, however. These are LTSP servers powering a whole school with 700 every-day users, it's elementary they are stable. For us being teachers by our main profession, it's a tough job running a network, since our superior authorities grant us almost no time for doing it. It's like you have a full-time job that keeps you busy 120% of your time and you are asked to run the company network in your free time -- with full responsibility.
I heavily rely on sources like launchpad for doing that job, but I simply cannot always be in time with running tests on that system. Still, I want to give back a little by writing bug reports and helping to resolve bugs where I can.

I will certainly find opportunity to upgrade our BIOSes sooner or later, but as others confirm the bug, I would not want to let this block the bug resolution process. Thanks to all for your help and effort!
