Since RC is already released and the issue is still there, I think
there is almost no chance of getting it fixed before the final release
!!!

So, I have reverted back to Intrepid and I am happy now !

Users having these intel chipsets should be strongly discouraged from
upgrading/installing Jaunty 9.04, until there is a fix.
The known issues section of the release notes should mention this
problem (and possible temporary solutions like UXA, EXA etc).

I would suggest warning the intel chipset users by means of a 'Warning
Dialog' before the installation stage. I guess it would be prevent the
users from wasting their time, unless they want to experience the
problem for themselves !!
