Comment 38 for bug 908560

Ok, as someone posted in the UNR thread, here's the nitty gritty about what's going on here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38782 . Now, for some reason the Kernel.org folks consider this bug "invalid," which seems like a bloody cop-out considering how quirky hardware doesn't stop Windows 7. There's a fix, and it doesn't seem too hard to implement, so why don't we create a PPA or something to implement it?

Only thing stopping me from implementing it myself is my absolute lack of programming skills. Trust me on this one; I'm about as hard on modern programming as Groo the Wanderer is on ships.
