Ubuntu's demise will be that changes are pushed that are not ready for release or break the system. Watch how many sysadmins reverted to Debian after the RAID debacle. It took 1.4 year to fix the bug that Ubuntu introduced in RAID (the bug was never in Debian). It was also never acknowledged as a failure. I think there is a chance that after all these bug reports and people that complain - people that took the effort of installing a prerelease Jaunty and reporting bugs! Important people! ... that Canonical/Ubuntu will still ship the shitty driver and just bad luck for those 10% of customers. And that this will put off those people that took the effort to participate. So, concluding, I sincerely hope that 'they' will revert to the older driver that worked splendidly under Intrepid. Or give a choice while upgrading.
