Simply upgrade your kernel to 3.1 or 3.2 if you are having issues with 3.0.

Even though you are running a binary distribution, unless you _rely_ on
something in the kernel binary that the distribution provides, you can
easily compile your own vanilla kernel on an Ubuntu system.  I used to
do it all the time, before I started using Gentoo, because of various
deficiencies in the Ubuntu kernel.

Seriously, that's the workaround.

If you need features from their custom kernel, check out their git
source trees, which bring the kernel up-to-date with the Ubuntu set of
patches in their own lands.
