Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance. -- no

Hi Peter, I agree with you. I wanted to get the 2.6.27 kernel for a specific fix which allowed me to use my laptop unplugged. So I thought I'd be adventerous and try the beta release. Big mistake so far. Hopefully things will be cleaned up soon. Best wishes, Vinod On Fri, Oct 3, 2008 at 10:45
