## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/AsusZ62FP * Contact: KeenanPepper * Make : ASUSTeK * Model: Z62FP (a.k.a. System 76 Gazelle Value) * ASUS website: [[http://support.asus.com/download/download_item.aspx?product=3&model=Z62Fp&SLanguage=en-us|Z62Fp]] * System 76 website: [[http://system76.com/product_info.php/cPath/1/products_id/193|Gazelle Value]] == Current Issues == * The default installation drives the gorgeous 1280x800 display at 1024x768, which makes it terribly blurry and stretched. Fixing the problem requires adding the universe repository to install the package 915resolution. This package should definitely be imported to main (unless another solution is found) because it is so vital to the correct functioning of this hardware. * The Synaptics touchpad seems to be misidentified as a Wacom tablet, so things like scrolling and tap-dragging don't work. Curiously, running {{{dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg}}} automatically inserts the proper section into xorg.conf. If only the same thing would happen during installation... * A CPU frequency scaling kernel module such as {{{speedstep-centrino}}} or {{{acpi-cpufreq}}} should be automatically loaded. Without one, the CPU runs at maximum speed even when idle, wasting power. A quick fix is to add one to {{{/etc/modules}}}. == System Info == {{{ bios-version:202 system-manufacturer:ASUSTeK Computer Inc. system-product-name:Z62FP system-version:1.0}}} == Hardware details == || || in Edgy (current stable)? || in Feisty (current development)? || || Installation works? || Yes || Yes || ||<-4> '''Hardware Information''' || ||<-4> '''Screen & Monitors''' || ||<|2> '''Device''' ||<-2> '''Works?''' ||<|2> '''Bug #''' || || in Edgy (current stable)? || in Feisty (current development)? || || Screen || Yes || Yes || || || Correct resolution? || Only after installing 915resolution || Ditto || || || Correct refresh rate? || Seems fine || Seems fine || || || 3D Acceleration || Yes || Yes || || || External monitor works? || Untested || Untested || || || External monitor - mirrors || Untested || Untested || || || External monitor - extend desktop || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Power Management''' || || Battery detected? || Yes || Yes || || || Hibernates? || Yes || Untested || || || Sleep || Unusable: screen remains black on resume || Untested || || || Dim monitor on battery || Yes || Yes || || || Blank monitor on inactivity || Yes || Yes || || || Lid Close || Yes || Yes || || || Cpu frequency scaling || Only after manually doing {{{modprobe speedstep-centrino}}} || Only after manually doing {{{modprobe acpi-cpufreq}}} || || ||<-4> '''Sound''' || || Sound works? || Yes || Yes || || || Correct volume? || Yes || Yes || || || Hardware volume switch || Yes || Yes || || || Headphone jack || Yes || Yes || || || Mic jack || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Networking''' || || Wired NIC || Yes || Untested || || || Wireless NIC || Yes || Yes || || || PCMCIA NIC || Untested || Untested || || || Firewire || Untested || Untested || || || Bluetooth || Untested || Untested || || || Modem || Untested || Untested || || || Infrared || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Touchpad & Mice''' || || Touchpad || Yes || Yes || || || Touchpad - Doubletap = double click || Yes || Yes || || || Touchpad - Scroll down side || Only after tweaking xorg.conf || Ditto || || || Touchpad - turned off while typing || No || No || || || External mouse - USB || Untested || Untested || || || External mouse - Serial || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Docking Station/Port Replicator''' || || AC through replicator || Untested || Untested || || || USB || Untested || Untested || || || Serial || Untested || Untested || || || Parallel || Untested || Untested || || || External Monitor - VGA || Untested || Untested || || || External Monitor - DVI || Untested || Untested || || || Modem || Untested || Untested || || || NIC || Untested || Untested || || || PS/2 || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Additional Hardware''' || || CD/DVD drive || Yes || Yes || || || PCMCIA cards || Untested || Untested || || || Parallel Ports || Untested || Untested || || || Card reader(s) || Untested || Untested || || ## Add or remove keys as needed for your laptop.
