Comment 87 for bug 156085

GCC 4.2 had bugs in it which are fixed in 4.3.
But you can always get the 3 series of the compiler anyway.

Also I don't think most devs care about bill and his millions, he is slowly loosing the battle of world domination and the EU are constantly trying to break him.
OOO is constantly gaining popularity and OOO 3.0 has some great new usability features which I like.

But this bug has been fixed in qemu, virtualbox, kvm and works correctly in jaunty, it supports all types of the usb system so it will work if you are running on an old system with an old OS that uses /proc/bus/usb also.

This isn't a thread but a bug report so your stupid rant is just wasting space, fortunately the bug has been fixed.
