But did you finally solve the issue? 

Devels can sound rude sometimes but their knowledge of "how stuff 
works" (where to look, how to test) are very useful in such situations.

I think this one from Frank it deserves. He has tried the usual things 
and none of them have worked. Anyway, we (bug reporters) are plain users, 
we don't have to be technically skilled in any specific field, just 
noting the error we get, when it happens, provide as much information as 
we can and explain what tests we have already done.
