Hi rudenoise, you reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Presumably this problem was a one time occurrence and/or is no longer an issue? Can the bug report now be closed? If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time. Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
