Hi Paul, Simo, Stuchy,

That's fine, but when I saw this bug and realised that I had the same
hardware, I spent an hour specifically installing Jaunty on it in the
hope of helping to track down this bug - but I was unable to reproduce
it. Why? Am I using the wrong methodology? Am I running a different
kernel or software? Is my Aspire magically special? Was it my Ubuntu
T-shirt that made it behave?

I'm trying to help here. if we have the same hardware and the same
software then in my view that rules out either hardware or software as
the cause of the problem. I've seen several Launchpad bugs where people
with apparently the same problem on different hardware have piled in and
reported it, creating a confusing mess that no dev will ever bother to
read, and therefore it will never get fixed.

Would it be productive to open a new bug report specifically for the
Acer Aspire 5135 _and no other hardware_ so that we can work on a
reproducible test case that doesn't depend on whose Aspire you try it
on, so that the devs can investigate it properly and we can get it fixed
before Koala is released?

Cheers, Chris.
