Mauro, This list is a good resource for getting EDK II questions answered, and for reporting problems. There is a good "signal to noise ratio" and a very diverse set of knowledgeable developers.
The EDK II tree on www.tianocore.org is similar to the "bleeding edge" tip of most open-source projects in that full production-level testing may not have been done. The production-level releases are under the UDK2010, etc., banner. Reporting issues, like you did, and testing help, such as you offered, go a very long way in helping us improve the utility and quality of EDK II.

Should I keep posting problems here in these list? I can also help testing the fixes.
