NOTES:

(1) Fix for function buttons not working:

*see bug report here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/62620

(2) Hibernation works after applying the above fixes to ACPI. It failed on my computer due to "Not enough swap file"

(3) Sound fixed in final version of Gutsy. External Amplifier needs to be set to ON.
