== Current Issues ==
Compiz does not work by default and not even after installing and using the nvidia driver. Otherwise the machine runs well.

== Hardware details ==
One laptop tested uses a Radeon 9000 graphics card and the other uses nVidia GeForce4 Go 440.

To install the nVidia version do not use the Restricted drivers manager, because it is buggy. Just run

 sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
 
 (...reboot...)
 
 sudo nvidia-glx-config enable

...but the nv driver works just fine also after adding the glx module in xorg.conf for OpenGL effects.
