[09:54] packard bell? do they still make laptops? [09:54] ;) [09:55] I have a R3400 and still some issues getting my RaLink rt2500 to work with wpa [09:55] have you looked on LaptopTestingTeam ? [09:55] and I read about the laptop-testing on the ubuntu wiki. [09:55] no r3400 series there [09:55] But I'll digg through the other models [09:56] Running 6.10 atm, cause 6.06 has issues with my chipset. [09:56] Since I have an odd laptop there, I'll try to help update the wiki with accurate data about the laptop. [09:56] very cool [09:57] jep. You can install dapper in a way.. but it requires 2 cd's... :( [09:57] Oh? Why? [09:58] Well, the R3400 is a mobile sempron with a ati chipset. [09:58] the only way to boot the dapper live cd is with a boot parameter acpi=off noapic nolapic [09:58] but then in finallizing the install (everthing seems to work great) it crashes just before grub is installed. [09:58] so I have a fully installed none-bootable system. [09:59] so I worked arround it by booting / installing breezy then upgrading to dapper [09:59] so 1 cd is enough, but it ain't dapper on that cd ;) === giftnudel [n=mb@p54B2A1B2.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-laptop [10:00] problem with the ati chipset it's creating a io error with 8254 timer on IO-APIC .. error message was somewhat like that. [10:01] This error continues throughout the entire selection of dapper kernels btw. I've tried from 2.6.15-23-k7/686 (tried both) till 2.6.15-26-* [10:01] Uh. [10:01] Well, the K7 kernel should be the one used with that cpu [10:02] Really weird problem though [10:02] Have you installed fglrx, the propietary ati drivers? [10:02] no, it's even before that. [10:02] the system won't boot in total [10:03] let me digg up the error message [10:03] 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC [10:03] that's the exact message I get right after I select a specific kernel. [10:04] it's a known but with the 2.6.15 kernel. [10:04] It's fixed in 2.6.16 and 2.6.17 though. so don't sweat it. [10:05] I read posts on both ubuntu mailinglists/forums about it being fixed in the dapper kernel, yet it doesn't seem to work. [10:05] ok :) [10:05] That's why I'm now running edgy on the laptop. Kind of a workarround. Before I ran dapper with a 2.6.16-ck12 kernel [10:18] my laptop is actually very similar to the R32800 after reading the specs [10:20] Are you planning to contribute your knowledge of your laptop to the wiki? [10:27] Nailor: working on it right now :) [10:27] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptopsPackardBell [10:27] I'll do a better and complete listing soonish. === Rroet is @ work :) [10:33] MWah, I have a day off. :) [10:35] Oh, haven't noticed that kind of list before.

They were handed out last August [06:45] gotcha, thanks! [06:47] we have to get this laptop testing in edgy on the road for knot 2 [06:47] because most people arent even able to make knot 1 [06:47] but this works === Burgwork [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #ubuntu-laptop [07:38] wait, they were giving out laptops? [07:38] also, I'll help with know2 [07:38] knot 2* [07:38] I understand there is a live cd version I can test w/o installing [07:39] Linuturk_code, yes, last year, to a few community members [07:39] the desktop cd [07:40] I use the Toshiba Satellite R15-S822 Tablet PC [07:40] and, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/edgy/knot-2/ << would that be the correct release? [07:41] yes === atomic [n=atomic@54-97.dial.nortenet.pt] has joined #ubuntu-laptop [07:42] isn't there a form or guideline for submitting test results? [07:43] yes, at LaptopTestingTeam [07:43] wiki, i'm guessing? [07:43] and, Tablet PC's fall under the "laptop" category? [07:44] is there additional work being done specifically for Tablet PC's? [07:51] yes [07:51] and somewhat [07:52] is there a way for me to test those Tablet specific features, and contribute to their development.
