Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? The 18-month support period for Edgy Eft 6.10 has now ended, so could you please try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
