Current Issues
RE: Breezy
Any reference to the HP-ized Hoary by Thomas Schneller is the iso found at this link: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/custom/20050516/
1) Hibernation does not work with AC power adapter plugged in. Laptop performs the hibernation shutdown but will not resume when AC adapter is plugged in. Must perform a reset. Hibernate DOES work when shutdown/resumed on battery power but wifi is deactivated on hibernate resume. Works OK with the HP-ized Hoary from Thomas Schneller.

Notes
*NOTE 1: 3D Accel works when using HP-ized Hoary from Thomas Schneller and Breezy.
*NOTE 2: Hibernate works when using HP-ized Hoary from Thomas Schneller and works on Breezy, but only when you are on battery power.(wifi is deactivated on hibernate restore) Hibernate locks up laptop on hibernate restore when AC adapter is plugged in and requires a hard reset with the power switch.
*NOTE 3: Wireless IPW2200 works out of the box but is somewhat buggy. Configuration profiles get confused when switching between them. i.e. home vs work. Open vs. WEP. WiFi nic does not like to resume after hibernate. Sometimes does not always associate after a fresh start. Decent success obtained with network-manager (bug 15144 marked as will not fix, willinclude in next release) Better success obtained with GTKWiFi from cvs (version 1.09)
*NOTE 4: Modem works out of the box when using HP-ized Hoary from Thomas Schneller. Not with the regular Hoary release. OK on Breezy.
*NOTE 5: TRACKPAD MOUSE ISSUE FIX. Applies to Hoary. Works out of the box on Breezy Colony 4 and PR and later.
Hoary fix: The ultra sensitive mouse issue and the crazy tapping, tap=middle click, random tap clicks without touching the pad etc. have been solved.
Turns out the synaptics driver is not in the xorg config file and adding 4 more lines solves the random tapping stuff. I now have a fully useable touchpad on my HP NC6120. This has been tested on a stock Hoary and a <= Breezy colony 3 installation.Works out of the box on Breezy Colony 4 and PR and later.
edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and add the 4 identified lines to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf as I have oulined at http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=312603&postcount=4
*NOTE 6: Suspend to RAM works but you must edit /etc/default/acpi-support and uncomment the line that states : ACPI_SLEEP=true . Then you will find that after a reboot you will be able to use the Fn-F3 key and/or the logout applet to suspend to RAM. To get the lid switch to activate suspend to RAM, edit /etc/acpi/events/lidbtn and change "action=/etc/acpi/lid.sh" to "action=/etc/acpi/sleep.sh"
*NOTE 7: Wifi Status LED can be made to work easily by creating/editing /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200. i.e. 'sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200' add the following text to it, save, and after your next reboot you will have a functioning blue LED. 'options ipw2200 led=1'
The wifi on/off switch works properly for me on Breezy C-4
