Current Issues

Monitor

The resolution on this baby is 1280x800 which is not recognised by driver since it can't get the information from the BIOS. Instead you get the default 1024x768 which looks weird. This is easily solved by enabling your universe repositories and installing 915resolution. Now you need to edit the file /etc/default/915resolution. Find a free mode by issuing the command 915resolution -l. Then set "MODE" to the free mode you found, "XRESO" to 1280, "YRESO" to 800 and "BIT" to 32. That's it!

ACPI

I get some funny error messages during boot from ACPI probably due to a buggy DSDT table. However everything except sleep seems to work for me so I haven't done much about it.

Sound

Unfortunately I've had no success in my endevours with the sound card. I tried installing the latest alsa-drivers as well as the latest kernel, but no luck.
