Current Issues
Intrepid
Much better then Hardy but still some remaining issues.
Touchpad seems to have some sensibility issues. Tap and double tap don't work reliably
Power button doesn't respond to anything
Bluetooth hardware is found but I can't get communication to work with other devices. Can be helped by "sudo hciconfig hci0 reset" see more at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/38592
Hardy
Touchpad seems to have some sensibility issues. Tap and double tap don't work reliably
Power button doesn't respond to anything
Bluetooth hardware is found but I can't get communication to work with other devices
For the wireless network the hardware is found but it only works sporadicly. Some Sony power saving feature I'd guess.
WLAN LED doesn't work
Issues with suspend/resume
