I need ndiswrapper and the windows driver to get it working. Wireless network doesn't always work right after booting. My Wireless network (with WPA-personal encryption) is configured and should work, but most of the time i need a few tries to get it up. What do i do? Disable wireless network in network manager, shut down the wireless radio, bring back the wireless radio and enable wireless network again in network manager. Then I select my network again and if i'm lucky, it works. If anyone needs me to test/try anything to get this to work properly, you may contact me. I'm not a linux expert so i can only describe symptoms and test stuff people ask me to do ;) Default screen resolution (1280x800) isn't automatically set after installation. After installation, i had a resolution of 1024x768. The keys for ajusting the brightness of the screen (FN+F8 and FN+F9) do not work. == System Info == {{{ ## Put the output of the following command here: ## (cd /var/lib/acpi-support/ ; grep . -r *-*) }}} bios-version:1.0C-5821-8A20 system-manufacturer:FUJITSU SIEMENS system-product-name:AMILO Pa 1538 system-version:REFERENCE == Hardware details == || || in Feisty (current stable)? || in Gutsy (current development)? || || Installation works? || Yes || Untested || ||<-4> '''Hardware Information''' || ||<-4> '''Screen & Monitors''' || ||<|2> '''Device''' ||<-2> '''Works?''' ||<|2> '''Bug #''' || || in Feisty (current stable)? || in Gutsy (current development)? || || Screen || Yes || Untested || || || Correct resolution? || No || Untested || || || Correct refresh rate? || Untested || Untested || || || 3D Acceleration || Works when installing NVIDIA driver || Untested || || || External monitor works? || Untested || Untested || || || External monitor - mirrors || Untested || Untested || || || External monitor - extend desktop || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Power Management''' || || Battery detected? || Yes || Untested || || || Hibernates? || No || Untested || || || Sleep || Untested || Untested || || || Dim monitor on battery || No || Untested || || || Blank monitor on inactivity || Yes || Untested || || || Lid Close || Yes || Untested || || || Cpu frequency scaling || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Sound''' || || Sound works? || Yes || Untested || || || Correct volume? || Yes || Untested || || || Hardware volume switch || Yes || Untested || || || Headphone jack || Yes || Untested || || || Mic jack || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Networking''' || || Wired NIC || Yes || Untested || || || Wireless NIC || No (see current issues) || Untested || || || PCMCIA NIC || Untested || Untested || || || Firewire || Untested || Untested || || || Bluetooth || Not present || Untested || || || Modem || Untested || Untested || || || Infrared || Not present || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Touchpad & Mice''' || || Touchpad || Yes || Untested || || || Touchpad - Doubletap = double click || Yes || Untested || || || Touchpad - Scroll down side || Untested || Untested || || || Touchpad - turned off while typing || Untested || Untested || || || External mouse - USB || Yes || Untested || || || External mouse - Serial || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Docking Station/Port Replicator''' || || AC through replicator || Untested || Untested || || || USB || Untested || Untested || || || Serial || Untested || Untested || || || Parallel || Not present || Untested || || || External Monitor - VGA || No VGA port present || Untested || || || External Monitor - DVI || Untested || Untested || || || Modem || Untested || Untested || || || NIC || Untested || Untested || || || PS/2 || Not present || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Additional Hardware''' || || Fingerprint reader || Not present || Untested || || || CD/DVD drive || Yes || Untested || || || PCMCIA cards || Untested || Untested || || || Parallel Ports || Not present || Untested || || || Card reader(s) || Untested || Untested || || ## Add or remove keys as needed for your laptop.
