Current Issues
PaulSladen: the machine comes with a broken ACPI DSDT ("buggy BIOS"):
sudo apt-get install iasl sudo cat /proc/acpi/dsdt > dsdt iasl -d dsdt

This is great and means that suspend now works... however, the little icons in the top-left hand corner now destory the mouse pointer as they don't restore it after borrowing it. (Press Ctrl-Alt-F1 then Alt-F7).
PaulSladen: The Scrollwheel (also the middle button) is not working correctly. Apparently it was under Breezy, so this is a regression.
PaulSladen: MemoryStick carder is a Cardbus/PCMCIA device that is "plugged in" when a flash card is inserted. No idea how to drive it.
PaulSladen: I wrote some acpi-support card for the VGA switching, but this might "just work" with a fixed DSDT anyway. Something isn't quite right, if you set the status to crt on lcd off, it actually returns crt on lcd on when queried.
PaulSladen: Can't work out how to get the battery key (or preferably, disable the hardware status icons). But the WWW, MAIL and TICK keys are: [https://launchpad.net/bugs/23165 #23165].
