No, this is untrue. xrandr should tell you your current refresh rate - on laptops, this is basically uninteresting. /etc/fstab has nothing to do with it.

Sorry i mean /etcX11/xorg.conf!! I was currently change things in my fstab so that was my fault. So sorry.
Xrandr is realy new to mi.

So why is it in the testing scheme? What should I write?


Also untrue. If you have an nvidia card, you need binary drivers to support 3D. If you have anything else, then 3D should work with a plain Dapper install unless you have certain ATI cards, your card doesn't support 3D at all or it's fairly rare and nobody has written 3D drivers for it.

Maybe you'll explain how to use 3D aceleration with a clean Dapper-install. I think this can be a realy better answer than that. and wich ATI-Cards do not have 3D support? Maby any of those models from 1992 ;)

OK, but how do i know if it's working, simply if glxgears runs?


* What is 'Cpu frequency scaling' and how do I know if my laptop
supports it?

Depends of your CPU

Does your CPU speed up and slow down depending on how heavily it's used? if powernowd is running, then it's supported.

powernowd does not show in the system monitor, does that mean no
scaling? But how do I know if my CPU supports it?
Same as with my EVO N610c. I think that the Fn-keys don't work on any Compaq-EVO Laptop. But not only with Ubuntu. I've testet with a lot of Distris and the keys don't work. :-(((

Have you filed a bug?

Yes since 4.10 but not for 5.10! Nothing happens. But not only in Ubuntu.

If someone can tell me how to refer to these cute little keys with their
wee icons on - I will keep looking into this.
