It's depressing to hear that devs are using Intel-only systems and not
a single AMD one.
Really.
I suppose it would be, but I didn't say that, so I'm confused as to
where you think you're hearing it.
I thought Linux supporters were among the most conscious wrt
diversity
and competition ...

(btw: AMD E2 APU here, also an old Opteron, but both systems have
their own OSs and I'm not sure I have space or extra HDDs to attempt a
fresh install ATM. I will however attempt to test, is it required to
install? or just booting from LiveCD would trigger it?)
The reporter says that just booting the live CD doesn't trigger the
bug, it only happens on boot of the installed system.
