I know this is not a development list but I would like to report, as a
new user experience, that

1. When the PCTV usb stick is plugged in, Ubuntu can not boot. It
freezes before the desktop is started. (Ctrl-Alt-Del would reboot the
machine).

2. For some reason I could not figure out, I encountered a more severe
version of this bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/103148).
Namely, Ubuntu would freeze showing "kinit: No resume image, doing
normal boot...". Alt-Ctrl-F1, single-user reboot, etc all did not work
so I had to reinstall.

I do not know if 2 will be fixed soon, but if this happens the second
time, I will have to switch to some other distribution...

Cheers,
Bo
