Haha, that's just plain laziness.  They need to figure out what the
problem is, and fix it, or else figure out how to auto-detect which
setting works for which cards.  And lazy programmers are not what we
need.  The last thing you ask users to do is start toggling various
random settings in the hope that it makes a problem go away, without a
clear idea of _why_ the setting makes a difference.

Go beryl.
