Hello,

I played around with Dapper Drake Flight 6 on my HP nx9010 for three hole 
days. Report at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HPNX9010

There was a few issues that i belive are common for many laptops:

** General **

* module 'yenta-socket' was not autoloaded - it should be. Adding it 
to /etc/modules activated my PCMCIA and brought up my WLAN.

* PCMCIA-cs is depricated according to kernel documentation. Shouldn't Ubuntu 
start using the newer 'pcmciautils' system instead..?

* Why isn't package 'smartmontools' installed by default? It works on all 
modern laptops, I belive.

* The default behaviour for screen savers is 'random'. I think it should be 
replaced with simply a energy saving mode, like screen shutdown.

** Only on Kubuntu **

* ACPI-contolling must be activated manually from the Control Center. The 
logout-window does not provide options 'sleep' nor 'hibernate'. If you log in 
to Gnome from KDM, the logout-window of Gnome neither gives options 
sleep/hibernate anymore (need to log in from GDM to do that).
