Like jima said... I'm guessing most people simply won't bother with the bug
report. Or ever test the new stack again for the life of the release. (Note
that the latest F8 kernel has dv capture support for OHCI 1.0 controllers,
while the initial release kernel does not).

Uhm... So you gave up on juju three releases before it existed? It didn't show
up until F7...
