Chris, thanks for giving this bug some attention.

I'm not sure how to go about your suggestion.

The problem occurred twice, but in both cases took many hours to
manifest while I was using the laptop busily, and I don't see how I
can get useful work done will running from the live CD. This isn't a
spare computer, it's my work laptop.

Also, I've stopped running the Intrepid kernel with the Gutsy install,
because there are other regressions getting in the way of useful work
- 3G-over-bluetooth internet connectivity has stopped working, and so
has audio in.

I'm happy to follow instructions and send further bug reports, but I
don't have much "spare" time to try things. It's unfortunate that
this bug doesn't manifest quickly.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
-- Jamie
