I can confirm same problem in my Janunty box and fixed it in the same way. One interesting thing is that I have 10 identical machines running Jaunty. Only the machines I have updated packages, from Internet after installation by synaptic, shows this problem. But the machines that I have the default packages from ubuntu CD does not show this problem.
