So we've got a beta version out there, and it's a fairly short time until the final release. A lot of laptop support code has gone into recent updates, so it would be really good if people could test things thoroughly and let us hammer out the last few bugs.
Good things to test: 1) Does suspend/resume to disk work? To RAM? Espresso will currently fail to write a resume file, so if you install via that please do echo RESUME=/dev/whatever | sudo tee /etc/mkinitramfs/conf.d/resume replacing /dev/whatever with the name of your swap partition. You'll then need to do sudo update-initramfs and reboot. 2) Does X get configured correctly? We've had various machines which ended up running the vesa driver instead of the accelerated one, so please do check that. 3) SD slots are more likely to work now - if you do lspci | grep 0805: and get anything back, there's a good chance that it'll work. Testing that would be helpful. Memory stick, XD and other formats won't work, but sd and mmc ought to. Other devices probably still aren't supported, I'm afraid. There should be a kernel update in the next few days that will fix up some more bugs, especially suspend/resume related to sata and bluetooth. Please do update to the very latest packages to check whether bugs have been fixed before reporting them, but also feel free to report anything you think may be a bug.
