Notes
Webcam works with http://lsb.blogdns.net/ry5u870/ ry5u870 driver Generally laptop works very well with ubuntu
External monitor
It works by running nvidia-settings and changing it on the fly. With driver from 100.14.19 it works with shortcut key too [fn]+F4.
Hibernate & Sleep
After multiple sleep-wakeup, laptop may not wake up... displaying a black screen and is unresponsive over network. I tried to update bios as it said fixing some problems of this kind, but no luck. Still investigating ...
* Feisty Final: If compiz is disabled, hibernate and sleep works as intended!
* Gutsy: Sleep/hibernate works if compiz is enabled too! If you sleep/hibernate and a removable disk is attached, after wake up, it will warn about unsafe removal and will remount disk.
