It seems like Canonical, Ltd. does not have priority to fix this bug. Or there is not enough resources (skilled people and/or time) to fix bugs. I've noticed huge amount of bugs in launchpad.net - it takes long time, when they could fix them with current tempo. I think there is no point to release new version of Ubuntu if old bugs are not fixed and with new release are coming new and worse bugs (e.g. some main and important features like scanning, printing or webcam does not work even if they worked with earlier versions of Ubuntu or with other Linux distros).
When scanning discovered broken at Dapper Drake (6.06), they said - it will be fixed in Edgy Eft (6.10). But what about if I would like to use scanner and webcam in the same operating system? It seems like you should have separate Ubuntu versions on separate PC-s or under VM Ware (which is working under Windows...) to get support to main hardware. In the beginning also printing was broken in this "enterprise ready" Dapper Drake... Thank God they at least fixed printing and I stayed to Dapper Drake and sacrified scanning lack.
