I'm a bit confused, having read all the comments.
I have an inspiron 8500, which reports "Dell Computer Corporation" in 
dmidecode. So I don't appear to benefit from the fix in 2.6.27-11.

Does the above comment

 mean that I won't get this fix until I upgrade to Jaunty in April? ( 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule ).

If so, should I use the blacklist workaround mentioned, and what are the
side effects? (Seeing as I have no idea doing that actually means.)
