This is the place to report and it's out of my control (or yours) to escalate, that's up to the developers to decide importance. I'm no longer using Ubuntu, I left it about 4 months ago for a branch of it (Bodhi Linux) which I've been quite happy with.

Have you also tried downgrading your kernel? If there is no reason to upgrade (ie. the new one supports your hardware better) there isn't any harm done going back to an older kernel. As I've moved away from ubuntu which is all about cutting edge, many developers think "if it's not broken, don't upgrade".

With this philosophy in mind I now have two installs, one really basic one that I keep up to date for testing the other stable which I only upgrade after the test version has worked well for 1-2 months doing normal day to day stuff.

I do think you should try 12.04, maybe it's a X problem which will be upgraded in 12.04, or a video driver issue which maybe was solved in 12.04. I think that the main issue is that as it gets so close to release of a new LTS they're probably focusing on this instead of looking at bugs on older releases (just a guess)
