Current Issues
- The Ricoh card reader only recognizes SD cards. No XD or MS support.
The wireless network has a very short operating range. The explanation and a workaround are available here.
In Jaunty, the proprietary ATI video driver fglrx is no longer supported for the Radeon X1200 in this model. The only option is the open source driver, which has poor 3D acceleration and some screen tear. A driver update should improve quality and reduce some of the tear.
