So far, it seems that disabling JUST id=8 works fine. If both are enabled, the original problems remain (as expected). If I only disable id=7, problems are the same. I will test this a few more days to confirm further. It would be very good if Lee Willis can reproduce this and confirm also. --

Lee Willis - that's very nice to hear! Yeah, it would be interesting to know the actual issue, so I would also like the developers to further investigate it. If it were purely hardware error, the switching would occur in Windows (7 in my test case) too, but it doesn't. However, I am very glad
