Status in lshw:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lshw

  I'm experiencing some weird behavior in lshw on my newly installed Xubuntu Lucid.
  I noticed the other day that specificly the lastmountpoint value of my disk volumes are corrupted:

                *-volume:1
                     description: EXT4 volume
                     vendor: Linux

  Further more - in a possibly unrelated bug - I experience running the command caused the screen to go funny. When printing out the list of entries the screen would suddenly change colors to look very strange. However simply switching to another tty and back would solve the problem, and the screen image was back to normal.
  I've recently installed a possibly bugged device driver which might have been the cause of this, since after removing it yesterday I can't replicate this step this morning.
  But I'll keep this info here just in case..
