Hello,

Since my initial posts, I have used Ubuntu-Mobile edition more on my Samsung 
Q1-Ultra. Here are few observations and bugs to report (and I hope some 
solutions can be found for the bugs);


 
**BUGS** 

- xournal:
  "wiggly", some type of a resolution issue (mid edition worked fine) I think. 
The lines appear as "steps". I fiddled around with various options (XInput, 
Corevents etc) but I can't get this resolved.

- fstab:

  need to remove /dev/sdb entry about CDROM, messes USB stick etc usage. The 
default behavior should not have that like as far as I can tell.  Removal is a 
FIX.

- suspend/hibernate: 

It does not work out of the box but one needs to get rid of "uswsusp" package,  
do "apt-get remove uswsusp ". Default behavior should not have it??


- cell-writer/on-screen keyboard:

Takes up whole top screen. should push the window down (looks like the option 
for that is checked) rather than going over other windows. In early MID 
editions that was the behavior.

Also does not fit the screen, numerical pad and cursors are cut on the right.

I can't move it around so I can see what is being typed.

It does not get invoked in "handwriting recognition" mode ever. I can't tell 
why.


- joystick vs mouse:

It switches between joystick/mouse but does not work as expected.  I can't use 
arrows around the enter key as cursors or scrolling up/down while viewing GUIs. 
 With mid edition, I was able to use those
buttons to scroll LR/UD on documents and as cursors in terminal window. This is 
big usability hazard for me since I use this device for reviewing PDF documents.

- window resizing, moving etc

UDF button maximizes windows and there appears to be other undocumented 
features. I can't view two windows simultaneously since I can't seem to be able 
to resize them. by accident, I pressed something and succeded in that once. 
Would love to know what the various ways of resizing, moving are. Willing to 
enter this into the wiki.

- VGA output:

Does not appear to recognize it properly. If GNOME is already up, changing 
display settings, selecting "mirror" or such does not anything.  If I restart 
GNOME (CTRL-ALT backspace) or reboot while hooked up, I end up with a blank 
screen on the device and no-output on the screen. I tried with a projector and 
an external LCD screen. Before I go into changing Xorg.conf settings, I wonder 
if there are known fixes/changes one should do. I like to use this device as a 
teaching aid for PDF presentations and while drawing on-screen. Ideally, it 
would be good to see this mapped to "menu" key or some such so one could 
shuffle between device only, external only, device + external views like a 
regular laptop.

**SUGGESTIONS:**

- Software to include: 

 qalculate (in a science package)
 onefinger 
 
- Calibration of screen:

Make it more visible. I would say it should be a default question  after first 
install. I had to navigate menus to find it to calibrate the screen.
