I've updated the original description to reflect my experiences with Gutsy.
** Description changed: - OK - time for a big update, please let me know direct if anything is - wrong or misleading. Duncan + Updated June 27th for Gutsy. + Please let me know direct if anything is wrong or misleading. Duncan Here is a run through of the status on my machine, an HP dv8000 series laptop (dv8220ea) running Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) with kernel 2.6.20-14-generic. My laptop testing page is at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HP_Pavilion_DV8220EA and my (totally useless) Ubuntu Hardware Database entry is at: http://hwdb.ubuntu.com/?xml=d7aa35a00d28d36a608b2d09bc3b27e3 I went to the Debian GNU/Linux device driver check page at http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ which uses the PCI map of Debian kernel 2.6.18-4-686 (2.6.18.dfsg.1-9). Unlike when I first made this report, my hardware seems to be recognized. The relevant hardware is: PCI ID Working?
