== Current Issues ==
## List any issues you have with the current development release here

 * booting
  * booting stalls
  * boot option 'noapic' helps
  * might be related to kernel bugs [[http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8195|8195]], [[http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8186|8186]] and [[http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7894|7894]]; see also the discussion in http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-laptops/75587-linux-hp-dv6000-amd-laptops.html
 * hibernate (suspend to disk)
  * kernel panics when trying to hibernate
  * with the additional boot option 'nosmp' hibernate and resume works (that is, no symmetric multiprocessing in the dual core processor :-/ )
 * sleep (suspend to RAM)
  * machine hangs when trying to put to sleep
  * with the additional boot option 'nosmp' the machine goes to sleep, the sleep light comes on, it wakes up on a key press, but the screen is just blank and the keyboard is not working (for example caps lock and num lock)
  * might be related to kernel bugs [[http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6961|6961]] and [[http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6058|6058]]
 * error messages in dmesg
  * PCI: BIOS BUG #81[49435000] found
  * PCI: Failed to allocate mem resource #6:20000@e0000000 for 0000:05:00.0 (similar to bug [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/54294|54294]] in launchpad)

=== Notes ===

The testing was done with the i386 desktop image (live CD) of each release. 

7.04 Feisty
 * Installation: additional boot option 'noapic' (+ corresponding change in /boot/grub/menu.lst)
 * Hibernate: works if adding boot option 'nosmp', otherwise the kernel panics when trying to hibernate
 * Sleep: with the additonal 'nosmp' boot option, the machine goes to sleep, the sleep light comes on, it wakes up on a key press, but the screen is just blank and the keyboard is not working (for example caps lock and num lock)
 * Wireless NIC: the Broadcom 4312 card is partly working with the linux driver after extracting the firmware with bcm43xx-fwcutter (WEP working, but it's slow, WPA not working), see also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
{{{
sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
}}}
 * Infrared: only working with the laptop's remote control (same as in MS Windows)
 * 3D acceleration: only with the restricted nvidia driver

6.10 Edgy
 * Installation: additional boot option 'noapic' (+ corresponding change in /boot/grub/menu.lst)
 * Sleep: the machine goes to sleep, the sleep light comes on, it wakes up on a key press, but the screen is just blank and the keyboard is not working (for example caps lock and num lock)
 * Infrared: only working with the laptop's remote control (same as in MS Windows)
 * Multimedia touch key 'Volume Mute': does mute and unmute, but doesn't change color between red and blue according to status
 * Play/Pause key: only pause, does not play
 * 3D acceleration: only with the restricted nvidia driver

6.06 LTS Drapper
 * Installation: additional boot option 'noapic' (+ corresponding change in /boot/grub/menu.lst)
