BlackJudas: Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. The problem is that there
are literally hundreds of things that can cause _exactly_ the symptoms
that Polygon has.
The single most important thing right now is to narrow the problem
down between ubuntu's userspace, ubuntu's kernel patches ('sauce'),
and ubuntu's kernel configuration. Once we've got that nailed down, it
should be easy to get a developer to see the actual problem; without
doing that, we'll just be going on a goose chase. Yes, we may get
lucky, but judging from the bug this was forked from, I think we'll
stick with the slow-and-steady approach. :)
