I wonder if anyone has any idea on how this bug is going to get fixed now? I don’t understand, we have a workaround here which works (for the majority of those affected at least), yet it doesn’t seem like the workaround is going to get integrated in the kernel as a fix for the problem. This bug report doesn’t show any progress, and the last comment from a kernel developer on the relevant bug report in the kernel’s bug tracker – https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15612 (as was mentioned in a comment here before) – is over six months ago now. What is the obstacle to get this fixed? Do the developers need any more information from the users affected by the bug, which we could then help provide? At this rate we will still have to apply this workaround manually once Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick) is released, no?
