## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/HPCompaq6720s * Contact: MaciejStrzelecki, OttoKekäläinen * Make: HP * Brand: Compaq 6720s (HP6720s) * Model: GR645EA, GB901ET * Website: http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/pl/pl/sm/WF06b/1090723-1124065-1124065-1124065-12434458-80464608-80632501.html == Current Issues == * Desktop effects does not work, has issues in Compiz and thus is [[http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/Hardware/Blacklist|blacklisted]]. ** Can be circumvented by disabling the blacklisting and using only mplayer/x11 to play videos. == System Info == Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq 6720s F.04 (Hardy test machine had F.09) == Old BIOS versions == * BIOS versions below F.03 are known to give network problems. A workaround is to boot with the kernel option "pci=noacpi" which allows you to download a newer BIOS.
