Yes, and SuSE also had various easily found mentions of it.
Fedora also had mention of it somewhere--never found it on their site,
but it was mentioned on the mailing lists.
In Fedora's case, I doubt it was any effort to hide it, simply their
usual lack of documentation.
I hadn't gotten the impression that Ubuntu was getting the bad press
about it, but then again, not having the card, I wasn't paying that much
attention either.
If so, it's probably simply another indication of their popularity.
There are so many Ubuntu users that more of them were probably affected
than were other distributions.
