Had this problem with Ubuntu 7.04, hoped it would be gone with 7.10. Alas, while testing with a beamer yesterday, my Dell Latitude D620 twice stopped after the second cycle-through with F8...I'm often running customer presentations requiring a beamer and I had to use Windows (argh) because of this bug.

Questions:
- Seeing that there was now changes in this bug report for around 4 months: Is the patch described in this bug still the best way to solve the problem?
- I'm not deep into Linux. For me it is not clear how to apply the patch. I guess I have to change (after saving a copy of the original) a certain file with the text in the patch? Do I need to recompile anything? I would much appreciate a short "how-to" on applying this patch.

Thanks a lot
