This will not be fixed for feisty, closing 2.6.20 task.

This bug was nominated for Gutsy but does currently not qualify for a
7.10 stable release update (SRU) and the nomination is therefore
declined. According the the SRU policy, the fix should already be
deployed and tested in the current development version before an update
to the stable releases will be considered. With 7.10 now released, that
policy applies to this bug. See:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates .

The bug is not being closed as work will continue on fixing it for the
next release, Hardy Heron (8.04). The Hardy kernel was recently uploaded
for testing. We'd really appreciate it if you could try testing with
this newer kernel and verify if this issue still exists. Unfortunately,
the Hardy Heron Alpha1 LiveCD was released with the older 2.6.22 kernel.
You'll have to manually install the newer Hardy Heron kernel in order to
test. This should not be the case for Alpha2. However, here are the
instructions to install (if you choose to do so):

1) edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list and add the following line:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy main restricted

2) sudo apt-get update
3) sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.24-1-generic
4) reboot and select the new kernel from the grub menu

After you've tested, please feel free to revert back - ie boot into the
old kernel, sudo apt-get remove linux-image-2.6.24-1-generic, and remove
the line from /etc/apt/sources.list . Please update this report with
your results. Thanks in advance!
