Config Notes
** 2.10 (Install test) ** ATI Mobility Radeon X1250 graphics not detected during install. Went to ATI website, but Mobility Radeon section did not have X1250. Selected X1300, which points to "ATI Proprietary Linux x86 Display Driver 8.39.4." [drivers and software (find a driver) --> linux x86 / Mobility Radeon / Mobility Radeon X1300] [http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html]. Follow instructions at http://en.opensuse.org/Howto/ATI_Driver#Installation_-_Get_and_Install_ATI_Drivers (for SuSE/SLED10-IA32). Wireless LAN not tested due to lack of driver availability for Broadcom wireless LAN. ____ ** 2.14.3 (Suspend to disk) ** Hotkey (fn+f3) not supported, however "powersave -U" works and is supported. ____ ** 2.15.3 (Suspend to RAM) ** Hotkey (fn+f3) not supported, however "powersave -u" works after setting /etc/powersave/sleep: SUSPEND2RAM_FORCE:"yes" ____ ** 2.18.1 (Video Test) ** Connecting external monitor required a reboot while the monitor was connected. Using hotkey (fn+f4) does not cycle through modes (external, internal, dual), it only refreshed the external monitor. ____ ** 2.19 (Desktop Effects Test) ** The Activate 3D Acceleration box was greyed out but checked. Enable Desktop Effects button was not shown in Look and Feel section because 3D Acceleration was showing Disabled. Found instructions at http://en.opensuse.org/Using_Xgl_on_SUSE_Linux to set 3D Acceleration to Enabled by holding shift key and double clicking on Disabled next to 3D Acceleration. Click Enable Desktop Effects button then restart system. ____ ** 2.19 -> 2.14.3 (Suspend to Disk with Desktop Effects) ** Similar result as previous test (without Desktop Effects): "powersave -U" works. ____ ** 2.19 -> 2.15.3 (Suspend to RAM) ** Similar result as previous test (without Desktop Effects): "powersave -u" works. ____ ** 2.19 -> 2.18 (Video test) ** Same result as previous test (without Desktop Effects): restart was required to activate external monitor, and hotkey (Fn+f4) only refreshed external monitor instead of cycling through internal/external/dual modes. Overnight USB Port test was performed with one USB Hard Drive attached to the system.
