[Bug 20781] Re: pcmcia detection locks up my laptop [also dapper flight 5]

[eze80]

This isn't a problem specific to laptops. My desktop computer hanged
with the same bug. A friend of mine had the same bug.

The instalation hangs while trying to configure the package pcmcia-cs
and then hangs on startup while trying to init the module. I had to
reinstall Ubuntu, but my friend found a way around. He just started the
machine using an i386 kernel instead of the 686-smp (the 686-smp is the
only kernel I had configured).

I was wondering since I'm not familiar to the bug resolving process, if
this bug gets patched will it be patched in the main repositories? or
will every update have this issue?
