Is this problem going to be fixed in Hardy? I too have this same problem and it drove me immediately away from Ubuntu for a few months. I had to come back because Ubuntu has the packages that I use. However this is a real negative for Ubuntu, I have a hard time recommending this if it doesn't

That is very good news!!! Is it in the normal repos? Is it up for testing and will soon be passed to the normal repos? How do I get it? I changed the driver in xorg to i810 and that seems to have helped. I'm running Hardy up to date. I will help with testing the driver if need be. Thanks for
