Comment 392 for bug 85488

Sitsofe - The point of the article and my comments was not "I'm unhappy" but that distros need to stop deferring solutions to the future.

There will be plenty of users who will not be able to upgrade to Gutsy. Besides, Google shows these problems plague 2.6.22rc's and final. There's no need for deep testing. I gave one 2.6.22rc4 link above, and can report identical problems myself using 2.6.22.1 + LiDE 60 (kernel.org build with suspend=y). My suggestion for Ubuntu Gutsy is to set the flag OFF by default, and supply a separate "laptop" kernel.

It's really amazing you guys are still not putting a simple kernel rebuild in the repos. This kind of non-responsiveness to bug reports has caused us to drop Ubuntu entirely and it is only because I saw Shuttleworth here that I still communicate at all. Otherwise I don't think there is *anyplace* on Ubuntu bugzillas / wikis / newsgroups / mailers that can convince you guys to change the workflow. Only Shuttleworth can do that, and only if he understands the vision disconnect that is happening. Basically the Ubuntu teams would rather work on future stuff than do the mundane things that make users happy....sorry to be a little blunt, but that is my honest impression.
