You can read some background notes [[/Background|here]].
This is not necessary to understand text below.
This test is '''community driven'''. For official one, performed on Canonical Ltd. supplied laptop visit [[LaptopTestingTeam/HPNX8220-PG802|this page]].
= Preparations =
[[/TechnicalStuff|Here]] you can read some technical stuff about this model of laptop.
== Enviroment ==
* All test were or will be performed on laptop that I use daily for different purposes.
* I'll always use ''one partiton'' instalation ie. all system and user data will be placed on one "guest OS" partition ({{{/dev/hda4}}}).
* I'll use ''swap'' partition which was created earlier for daily-used Ubuntu instalation ({{{/dev/hda5}}}).<
>
* Sample instalation guide I might provide later.
== Assumptions ==
* all test were/will be performed with '''Final Releases''' of Ubuntu ''Desktop'' OS.
* installation performed '''without''' network (fresh CD install),
* some test were/will be performed with open source '''and''' with binary ATI driver,
* if something will start to work after update via network it'll be emphased.
* (dist-)upgrades were/will be performed only on base instalation +
* full system update,
* packages needed for proper laptop work (if any),
* ATI binary driver installed (but not used while upgrading),
* WPA-enabled NetworkManager installed,
* Ubuntu localization packages installed (in my case for Polish language),
* if any problem occur I'll try to provide a way to solve it.

* <>[0] All drivers downloaded from Ubuntu repository
* <>[1] Driver download needed
* installed via {{{sudo aptitude xorg-driver-fglrx}}}
* customized {{{/etc/X11/xorg.conf}}} TODO: link to file
* <>[2] If Bluetooth device is disabled (eg. by HP Tool provided with pre-installed Windows) it won't work. <
>To bring blue Wi-Fi led to live follow these steps:
* create/edit {{{/etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200}}} file eg. {{{Alt+F2}}} + {{{gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200}}}

* reboot
* <>[3] Additional software download needed + additional configuration
* easy install with {{{sudo aptitude install network-manager-gnome}}}
* manual configuration needed
* edit {{{/etc/network/interfaces}}} file eg. {{{Alt+F2}}} + {{{gksu gedit /etc/network/interfaces}}}
* comment all interfaces with # (with '''one exception''' ie. {{{loopback}}} interface - usually first two lines in this file.<
>I repeat '''DO NOT COMMENT LOOPBACK''' interface)
* reboot
* <>[4] Managed to get it to work (following step from ~-[[http://soften.ktu.lt/~s72482/nx8220/index.php?pid=4|Linux on HP Compaq nx8220 notebook]]-~)
* sudo sh -c "echo 'ircomm_tty' >> /etc/modules"
* <>[5] Manual config needed:
