Oh PS. all, because I'm starting to feel this workaround is looking pretty good[1] in my own (humble) opinion - functionally - I wish to point out that this is probably best integrated directly into an altered 05_initial_server_on_vt7.patch instead of adding another patch.

My patch (40_initial_server_on_vt7-improve-timing.patch) was merely intended as a /quick/ test of things and does _nothing_ more than move roughly half of the code blocks inserted by 05_initial_server_on_vt7.patch into a different location. I don't know who is entitled to do such (Sebastian Bacher?), also I probably have no commit access anywhere anyway, so manual integration of the patch into official ubuntu (debian? I'm such a noob!) is probably the best way anyway...

Cheers, I'm off to bed now!

[1] strange how a synthesized test can build more confidence in a programmer, even though a reallife test is obviously worth more...; I think it has to do with (a) having control (b) checking your thoughts doubly along the way - but I digress
