Current Issues
Linux alpha 2.6.26-4-generic #1 SMP Mon Jul 14 18:39:36 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Wireless card does not work out of the box. Fix available in Bug 250716].
Video card not fully supported out of the box, resulting in incorrect screen resolution.
NVIDIA driver quality for this release is sub-optimal thus far, likely due to Bug #245888], but I may not be doing it right. This is my best guess based on Updates on the NVIDIA drivers in Intrepid]
{{{$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177 $ sudo nvidia-xconfig}}}
Remember to comment out the RgbPath "/usr/lib/X11/rgb" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
