Current Issues
- Issues in Edgy
- The internal speakers are not muted when headphones are plugged in.
The WiFi interface does not work when starting from a hibernated state. Bug 94133. A possible workaround is mentioned in the bug report.
- When resuming from hibernation the display is sometimes full of random garbage (Nvidia driver problem?)
- Issues in Feisty
The WiFi interface does not work when starting from a hibernated or sleeping state. Bug 94133. A possible workaround is mentioned in the bug report.
- The internal speakers are sometimes not muted correctly when starting from a hibernated or sleeping state with headphones plugged in. The mute switch is apparently implemented in software.
- Issues in Hardy
- The computer hibernates, but does not power off. Pressing the power button for 3 seconds will turn off the power.
- Resuming from sleeping or hibernated state sometimes fails because of keyboard and/or graphics problems.
