I find this bug was fixed on 23/4/2010, but I have just been bitten again on 26/11/2010 using a fully updated Lucid LTS.
I know I can work round this using the command line, but ...
I need educating on the process by which bugs are fed back and fixed in Ubuntu releases, especially in LTS releases, where users do want to upgrade until the next LTS comes along. I tried upgrading to 10.10 on one machine to leave more serious bugs behind, but was immediately hit by other regressions. Can anyone point me towards a starting point for my education process? Many would be more enthusiastic about reporting and following up bugs if they could see the results more clearly. I want to be constructive, but I don't know where to start.
