> This is a flawed argument. Just because your card reader functionality
changed dependent on linux version, doesn't mean it's not dependent on
the BIOS.

You're wrong: I never said it was not "dependant on the BIOS". I said
that this shows that an update of the BIOS is not needed to fix this
issue, which is very different.

> If your computer is not yours, but provided by your employer, your
company's IT department would do it for you.

Except they won't because it can damage the laptop, for almost no
benefit.

> I also help Ubuntu on my free time.

Except we don't have the same definition of "help".

> However, nobody is going to be pleased to have an undue burden placed
on developer resources when one insists on their problem being worked on

I never insisted on anything being done. I just don't want my bug to be
closed if it is not fixed. That's all.

> Please do throw unfounded accusations around

This is not unfounded, and everything is archived. Keep that in mind.

As for the duplicate bugs, as long as this one stays "won't fix" for no
reason and that I can't change it, I'll have to create duplicates.
