Thanks, but even if it is same issue the BZ thread implies that it's
fixed in kernel 2.6.30, which is not available for F10, and that someone
backported it to an older kernel but only for F9.

So it looks like I'll have to live with it for now (I note that Rawhide
is still only up to kernel 2.6.29).
