Maybe. The machine runs "Tubuntu 12.04", which is an Ubuntu bundle from my employer. But I haven't seen other anomalies on that machine, and most of the packages are native Ubuntu ones. The differences are mainly user policy and alike. I'll see whether I could find another Tubuntu machine, and cross-check whether it is a hardware problem. The problem is that Tubuntu is not widespread (managers are focussed on MS Windows, and they rule); I don't know whom to ask here at Berlin. But there is a company-wide Tubuntu mailing list ... >> The better way might be that you give me a special patch producing >> whatever traces could help in analysis. > > I will try to think about it.

I'll check tomorrow more systematically. Best regards, Michael.
