The HD-DVD drive doesn't seem to work for every CD/DVD. It mounts some that I have burned, but others it detects as blank. Manually mounting CD/DVD works okay (i.e. mount /dev/hda *if hda is the device (could also use /dev/cdrom)* works)

Current Issues

Suspend/Hibernate don't work out of the box. uswsusp (sudo apt-get install uswsusp) fixed it. Follow instructions in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471855

Notes

Used the binary drivers for the NVidia video card (installed using Envy) Had to change the controlled device for sound to the Surround device to get the hardware control to work. The webcam is detected, but I haven't tested it.

The HD-DVD drive doesn't seem to work for every CD/DVD. It mounts some that I have burned, but others it detects as blank. Manually mounting CD/DVD works okay (i.e. mount /dev/hda *if hda is the device (could also use /dev/cdrom)* works)
