The status is that there are multiple reports of this being fixed in
kernel version 3.0, and if this is true then the issue is fixed for
oneiric. We're currently undergoing a process known as bisection to
identify what changes fixed the problem in 3.0 so that the problem can
be fixed in earlier versions. Anyone experiencing this issue can help
with the bisection process by testing the bisect builds that I am
posting and reporting whether or not the crash is occuring for each of
the builds.
