 * note 3: touchpad scroll area '''TODO'''
 * '''note 1'''[[BR]]
 the sound doesn't work after resume from standby (suspend to ram)[[BR]]
 workaround:
  1. stop the sound deamon ('artsd' under KDE)
  2. run{{{sudo rmmod snd_hda_intel
sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel}}}
  3. restart the sound deamon
 * '''note 2'''[[BR]]
 driver 'nv' (xserver-xorg-video-nv 1:2.1.8-1ubuntu1):
  * adjusting brightness through Fn+up/down works fine but without 3D acceleration
 driver 'nvidia' (nvidia-glx-new 169.12+2.6.24.11-12.31):
  * display brightness is always at minimum level after boot[[BR]]
  * when booting with AC adapter plugged in the display switches from max. brightness to min. brightness when the bootmessage {{{ * Loading hardware drivers...}}} [[BR]]
  is displayed[[BR]]
  * after resume from standby (suspend to ram) the brightness is at maximum level[[BR]]
  * brightness adjustment isn't possible when driver 'nvidia' is loaded[[BR]]
  this seems to be a known problem at NVidia (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=100494) [[BR]]
  workaround:
   1. switch to an other vt (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F6)
   2. run{{{sudo sh -c "echo -n <level> > /proc/acpi/video/NVID/LCD/brightness"
}}}
   where <level> is 0, 10, 25, 40, 55, 70, 85 or 100
 * '''note 4'''[[BR]]
 channel 'Mic' (Mic Jack) is always used as source for recording no matter what channel was selected (tested with audacity and gnome-sound-recorder; alsa-lib 1.0.15-3ubuntu4)
 * '''note 5'''[[BR]]
 passing channel 'front Mic' (Internal Mic) to the speakers through KMix (enable output channel 'Front Mic') works.
 * '''note 6'''[[BR]]
 input channel 'capture 1' has to be enabled for recording

Current Issues

  • sound does not work after suspend (see note 1)
  • adjusting brightness with driver 'nvidia' fails (see note 2)
  • Lid close is not detected
  • sound recording through internal mic isn't possible (see note 4,5)

Notes

  • note 1BR the sound doesn't work after resume from standby (suspend to ram)BR workaround:

    1. stop the sound deamon ('artsd' under KDE)
    2. run{{{sudo rmmod snd_hda_intel

sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel}}}

  1. restart the sound deamon
  • note 2BR driver 'nv' (xserver-xorg-video-nv 1:2.1.8-1ubuntu1):

    • adjusting brightness through Fn+up/down works fine but without 3D acceleration
    driver 'nvidia' (nvidia-glx-new 169.12+2.6.24.11-12.31):
    • display brightness is always at minimum level after bootBR

    • when booting with AC adapter plugged in the display switches from max. brightness to min. brightness when the bootmessage  * Loading hardware drivers... BR is displayedBR

    • after resume from standby (suspend to ram) the brightness is at maximum levelBR

    • brightness adjustment isn't possible when driver 'nvidia' is loadedBR this seems to be a known problem at NVidia (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=100494) BR workaround:

      1. switch to an other vt (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F6)
      2. run{{{sudo sh -c "echo -n <level> > /proc/acpi/video/NVID/LCD/brightness"

}}}

  • where <level> is 0, 10, 25, 40, 55, 70, 85 or 100

  • note 4BR channel 'Mic' (Mic Jack) is always used as source for recording no matter what channel was selected (tested with audacity and gnome-sound-recorder; alsa-lib 1.0.15-3ubuntu4)

  • note 5BR passing channel 'front Mic' (Internal Mic) to the speakers through KMix (enable output channel 'Front Mic') works.

  • note 6BR input channel 'capture 1' has to be enabled for recording
