## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/DellInspiron3800 * Contact: SridharDhanapalan * Brand: Dell * Make: Inspiron 3800 * Model: G700GT == Current Issues == ## List any issues you have with the current development release here == Issues (Edgy) == == Issues (Dapper) == * The machine can sometimes freeze inexplicably. This might be due to heat. * Suspend and hibernation only works about half the time. Either it fully suspends/hibernates or it tries for a minute before returning to the desktop. Upgrading the RAM from 128MB to 512MB increased the reliability to almost 100%. * My 802.11g wireless PC Card (Netgear WG511v2, using the Ndiswrapper driver) refused to work after resuming from suspend/hibernation. I had to use cardctl to eject and reload the card for it to be detected again. This is not a problem in Edgy. * The system often freezes a few minutes after a USB device is connected. == System Info == ## Put the output of the following commands here: ## (cd /var/lib/acpi-support/ ; grep . -r *-*) ## (uname -a) {{{ bios-version:A10 system-manufacturer:Dell Computer Corporation system-product-name:Inspiron 3800 G700GT system-version:Not Specified }}} {{{ Linux 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Fri Oct 13 18:45:35 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux }}} == Hardware details == || || in Dapper (stable release)? || in Edgy (stable release)? || || Installation works? || Yes || Yes || ||<-4> '''Hardware Information''' || ||<-4> '''Screen & Monitors''' || ||<|2> '''Device''' ||<-2> '''Works?''' ||<|2> '''Bug #''' || || in Dapper (current stable)? || in Edgy (current development)? || || Screen || Yes || Yes || || || Correct resolution? || Yes || Yes || || || Correct refresh rate? || Yes || Yes || || || 3D Acceleration || No || No || || || External monitor works? || Untested || Untested || || || External monitor - mirrors || Untested || Untested || || || External monitor - extend desktop || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Power Management''' || || Battery detected? || Yes || Yes || || || Hibernates? || Not reliably || Yes || || || Sleep || Not reliably || Yes || || || Dim monitor on battery || Untested || Untested || || || Blank monitor on inactivity || Yes || Yes || || || Lid Close || Yes || Yes || || || Cpu frequency scaling || Yes || Yes || || ||<-4> '''Sound''' || || Sound works? || Yes || Yes || || || Correct volume? || Yes || Yes || || || Hardware volume switch || Untested || Untested || || || Headphone jack || Untested || Untested || || || Mic jack || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Networking''' || || Wired NIC || None Installed || None Installed || || || Wireless NIC || None Installed || None Installed || || || PCMCIA NIC (wired) || Yes || Yes || || || PCMCIA NIC (wireless) || Yes || Yes || || || Firewire || None Installed || None Installed || || || Bluetooth || None Installed || None Installed || || || Modem || Untested || Untested || || || Infrared || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Touchpad & Mice''' || || Touchpad || Yes || Yes || || || Touchpad - Doubletap = double click || Yes || Yes || || || Touchpad - Scroll down side || Yes || Yes || || || Touchpad - turned off while typing || Untested || Untested || || || External mouse - USB || Untested || Untested || || || External mouse - Serial || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Docking Station/Port Replicator''' || || AC through replicator || Untested || Untested || || || USB || Untested || Untested || || || Serial || Untested || Untested || || || Parallel || Untested || Untested || || || External Monitor - VGA || Untested || Untested || || || External Monitor - DVI || Untested || Untested || || || Modem || Untested || Untested || || || NIC || Untested || Untested || || || PS/2 || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Additional Hardware''' || || Fingerprint reader || None Installed || None Installed || || || CD/DVD drive || Yes || Yes || || || PCMCIA cards || Yes || Yes || || || Parallel Ports || Untested || Untested || || || Card reader(s) || None Installed || None Installed || || ## Add or remove keys as needed for your laptop.
