Reporter on comment #5 said it worked using new_id:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/871904/comments/5

And he reported against 3.0 kernel, so I assumed it works since Oneiric.
He doesn't confirm the kernel version on the comment, but it's unlikely
it changed the kernel from 3.0 to a newer release (look at the dates
since it was reported until comment 5).
