## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/AcerAspire5004WLMi * Contact: [JiPi] (Hoary and Breezy), VickiNemeth (Dapper 32-bit) (help accepted) * Make: ACER * Brand: Aspire * Model: 5004WLMi * Website: http://www.acer.com/ * S/N: Only needed if you have a Canonical supplied laptop == Current Issues == ## List any issues you have with the current development release here * The default bootup vga console makes the screen roll over to the top which makes it difficult for setup. Setting vga=791 solves the problem tentatively. * Changing the brightness of the LCD backpanel using the Function keys sometimes put the system to hibernate mode * Wireless with Broadcom BCM94318 therefore requires ndiswrapper (latest from sourceforge with 64-bit windows drivers (which ACER doesn't have for this model) and therefore requires picking up the driver from another notebook reference. * x works from scratch but it is integrated video which Thomas Winischhofer does not recommend. Let's see if it can be put into accelerated mode. == Hardware details == || || in Hoary (current stable)? || in Breezy (current development)? || in Dapper (stable)?|| || Installation works? || yes || yes || yes || ||<-4 tablewidth="75%"> '''Hardware Information''' || ||<-4> '''Screen & Monitors''' || ||<|2> '''Device''' ||<-2> '''Works?''' ||<|2> '''Bug #''' || || in Hoary (current stable)? || in Breezy (current development)? || || Screen || yes|| yes|| || || Correct resolution? || yes || yes || || || Correct refresh rate? || yes|| yes|| || || 3D Acceleration || no|| no|| || || External monitor works? || Untested || no|| || || External monitor - mirrors || Untested || no|| || || External monitor - extend desktop || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Power Management''' || || Battery detected? || no || no || || || Hibernates? || no || yes (but thru brightness reduction key) || || || Sleep || Untested || Untested || || || Dim monitor on battery || Untested || Untested || || || Blank monitor on inactivity || no || Untested || || || Lid Close || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Sound''' || || Sound works? || yes || yes || || || Correct volume? || yes || yes || || || Hardware volume || yes || yes || || || Headphone jack || yes || yes || || || Mic jack || yes || yes|| || ||<-4> '''Networking''' || || Wired NIC || yes || yes || || || Wireless NIC || no || no || || || PCMCIA NIC || Untested || Untested || || || Firewire || Untested || Untested || || || Bluetooth || Untested || Untested || || || Modem || no || no || || || Infrared || Untested || Untested || ||<-4> '''Touchpad & Mice''' || || Touchpad || Untested || Weird buttons || || || Touchpad - Doubletap = double click || yes || yes || || || Touchpad - Scroll down side || Untested || Untested || || || External mouse - USB || yes || yes || || || 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''' || || Fingerprint reader || Untested || Untested || || || CD/DVD drive || Reading ok, writing ok || reading ok, writing ok || || || PCMCIA cards || Untested || Untested || || || Parallel Ports || Untested || Untested || || || Card reader(s) || Untested || Untested || || ## Add or remove keys as needed for your laptop.
