No, that's not the issue.

I happen to be unfortunate enough to want to run Ubuntu however. I want to emphasize: this is not some sort of problem that is poorly understood and caused by buggy hardware. It is well understood and being ignored. > It is the same situation seen on the release of windows vista, where the > minor differences between xp and vista exposed similar device bugs which > sent vendors scurrying to produce driver updates. That's not even a remotely apt analogy. Among other things, this bug has been around since before the release of Vista and no one intends to fix it. Perry -- Perry E.
