## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/HPNX8220-PG802EA 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. ||<-5: style="width: 100%;"> '''Hardware '''|| ||<|2:>Device[[[#0|0]]]||<-3: style="width: 80%;"> Distribution||<|2:> Bug #|| ||<:>Dapper||<:>Edgy upgrade||<:>Edgy|| ||<-5:>'''Screen & Monitor'''|| ||<|2>Screen||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'')||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'')||<|2>Not tested yet||<|2:>|| ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx''[[[#1|1]]]) ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') || ||<|2:>Correct resolution||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'')||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'')||<:>Yes|| || ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') || || || ||<|2:>Correct refresh rate||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'') ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'') || ? ||<|2:> ? || ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') || ||<|2:>3D Acceleration||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'') ||<: bgcolor="red">No (''ati'') || ? ||<|2:> ? || ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') ||<: bgcolor="yellow">No (''fglrx''), but...[[[#6|6]]] || ||<|2:>External monitor||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'') ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''ati'') || ? ||<|2:> ? || ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes (''fglrx'') || ||<-5:> '''Network & Communication''' || ||<:>Wired network ||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes|| ? || ? || ||<:>Wireless network||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes || ? || ? || ||<:>Wi-Fi led||<: bgcolor="#11ff11">Yes, but...
