Comment 58 for bug 694029

I am happy to report that for the last several weeks this bug seems to be fixed. It appears to coincide with either linux-firmware 1.60 (possibly 1.59, since I went from 1.58 straight to 1.60) or linux 3.0.0-9.13 (or 3.0.0-9.12). I did updates around 2011-08-23 and found this bug is no longer a problem. I have done a lot of testing including the test case in the description along with a lot of VM use and updates in general. Marking Oneiric as 'Fix Released', but will re-open if this comes up again.
