Canonical only has *some* hardware to test. Any other hardware
testing comes from users reporting bugs during unstable. This one was
reported less than a month before release. Unfortunately, most people
don't start testing on actual hardware until around Beta or RC, so we
lose out on a *lot* of time when hardware issues could be fixed. I
intend to install as soon as Jaunty is rebased on 2.6.28.
