Hi Rod,
thanks for your info, it helps me a lot.
The only changes I've made was in Skype: the 'sound in' to HDA Intel
(hw:intel,0), 'sound out' and 'ringing' to pulse.
And it works.

In volume control preferences I've checked:
Master, PCM, Front, Front Mic, Front Mic Boost, Capture, Headphone, Input source
For device HDA Intel (Alsa mixer) and
Volume and PCM-2
For device Intel G45 DEVTG (OSS Mixer)
Then in volume control for device HDA Intel (Alsa mixer), I made sure all
sliders (except front mic boost which expectedly, caused the speakers to hiss)
were pushed near the top and ensured everything was un-muted. This is probably
overkill but, you can reduce volumes or mute channels by trial and error if
necessary.
On the Options tab I selected the "Int Mic" as input source.
Skype was set to use default sound devices.
Hope that helps,
Rod.

Hi Rod,
I've just installed Skype and have troubles with the mic. I've just looked into
the volume control for all the settings, but I think I overseen someone.
What exactly have you done to made it work with Skype (which are the sound-in
setting in Skype) ?
I'm running also the 64bit Jaunty.
Thanks !

Hi All,
Greetings from Ireland.
Firstly, big thanks for those responsible for setting up this list.
I've recently bought a Timeline 3810T Core 2 solo SU3500 1.4Ghz with 3GB RAM.
I'm running 64bit Jaunty (dual boot with Vista).
Here's my findings so far:
--- Tested and working out of the box: ---
Graphics - no problems except for occasional screen flicker when screen
brightness is low and some flickering in Compiz.
Camera - no problems
Soundcard - internal mic and speakers working. Did require volume control setup
and config for skype
External bluetooth (my model doesn't have internal Bluetooth) - no problems
- Boris, I was seeing what you seemed to be seeing - and assumed it wasn't
working. However, it doesn't work in Vista either - presing Fn+F3 shows up the
BT icon with an X. Acer support told me some models don't have BT (despite
being advertised as such). Does BT work for you in Vista, Boris?
--- Working after applying tweaks / fixes ---
HD - Install did work perfectly when I left BIOS SATA mode as AHCI. However,
like Domenico, the drive stared acting up shortly afterwards and I reinstalled
Jaunty with IDE turned on instead. Note: I haven't included any kernel options.
I upgraded to 2.9.30 this morning, but haven't tested AHCI mode yet. Has anyone
had any luck with this?
The only other differences I noticed was more granualarity with the brightness
settings.
Hibernate - Only seemed to work when I set up a 4GB SWAP space. (I remeber
reading somewhere that linux needs at least as much swap as the machine has RAM
to preform hibernate correctly - does anyone know if this is true?).
Note, it doesn't always hibernate correctly (I've never had a linux system that
did 100%). It gets almost all the way when shutting down and hangs. Pressing
Ctrl-Alt-Del show a message "stopping all md devices" then restarts the machine
(can't remember if it wakes from hibernation at this stage - will test).
--- Not working ---
Battery - ubuntu states about 4hrs life. Tho, I've have gotten nearly 5hrs from
a full charge this morning running medium brightness and not doing anything too
intensive.
Suspend - having the same problems everyone else is describing. Would like to
have this working.
Ethernet - atheros drivers did not 'make' for me. Errors here
http://pastebin.com/f3535dc6d
Card reader - Memory Stick.
-- Not tested ---
External monitor (VGA or HDMI)
Card reader - SD
Hope we can get most things working. It's a nice little laptop and I couldn't
face using windows on it.
Let me know if anyone wants further info of any config / log files.
Regards,
Rod.
