I don't think so. I heard quite a number of people reporting the same
incident you just reported. Since I don't have such hardware, I can't
try to do anything about it right now.

Hm, yes, might be. However, I have no idea if that fits as a Summer of
Code task. Perhaps it's just a ``simple'' bug fixing? At least
``simple'' once the bug is located. Can others estimate whether that
would be a valid task?
