Unfortunately it seems this bug is still an issue. Can you confirm this
issue exists with the most recent Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 release -
http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-9.04-desktop . Please let us know
your results. Thanks.

Ben: that's wrong (please read what other people posts...) :

The first attempt was to load the configuration from grub, by using the module

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the
