I wouldn't hold my breath. They've 'been aware' of the problem since at 
least April '04 when I sent feedback to them telling them of it. It's 
taken 8 months to admit there is a problem (This is the first release 
that's even mentioned it IIRC), and I wouldn't be surprised if it too 2x 
that to actually fix it.

Sadly, there is no urgency for them to fix it (Or else it would have 
been fixed a long time ago)... There's no bad publicity in providing 
sub-standard drivers for Linux users in the media...
