I didnt say that windows is essential. For me , it is just the OS I use 
to play. When I need to do real work , I use linux. Now , for many 
people out there , linux and windows are both essential to work.. 
Now , please , go out for a few days , relax and then come back to this 
mailing list. If you cant understand what people write , please dont 
answer. Your answer , quoted partially above show that you didnt 
undestand my point (which is a bit subtle , but I believe that it's not 
so dificult to see it...) that people have dual-boot systems for a 
reason , no matter which.
If you look on the other thread , my second message there is exactly 
trying to bring the subject back to the original problem and how to fix 
it or gather data to find out what is wrong.  I dont know about you , 
but I'm here to test things before any end-user gets this software and 
it destroys their systems and not to whine about something that wont 
work... I was thinking about mailing the person assigned to the bug , 
but I really need good data before I do this or before I add another 
comment on the bug report..

Not necessarily. What may be put to bed is this useless discussion. We 
need to go back to work and discuss what really matters, which is the 
bug , the situations where it appears , etc. This is why this list 
exists.. To discuss bugs in the test release (at least, it's test 
release untill tomorrow..)
