Hi Ugo,

Thank you for the information. It's unfortuante that your hardware does not seem to be supported the the upekts driver. Also I don't see that this driver is in the mainline kernel either. This is something that we strongly encourage to have happen. As you can see, I've tagged this report as 'hardy-kernel-candidate' so that we carry this report forward to the upcoming Hardy Heron release. However, against the linux-source-2.6.22 package this report is being marked as 'Won't Fix' as is does not meet the criteria for a stable release update. You can learn more about the stable release update process at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates . Please keep us posted on any further updates you may come across. Thanks!
