Comment 34 for bug 144621

I and a few friends are also having this incredibly aggravating problem and have been watching this bug for a month or so. What is the hold up with releasing the updates? Is there some way I could snag a build of it? It's just a module update, correct? If release policies get in the way, do consider how mainstream (a large number of laptops from various vendors have been shipping with this chipset for quite a while now) this hardware is and thus its importance to work properly. I think that waiting for hardy for a fix like this is unacceptable and damaging of ubuntu's reputation.
