Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04
Film Scanner
Minolta
Dimage Scan Dual 11
Version: Kubuntu 8.04 LTS
PC: HP Pavilion ZE4355EA (notebook) 512MB RAM, 40 GB HD swap partition 1.5GB, ATI radeon Mobility U1
BIOS: KA.M 1.60
Installation was fine, but no suspend/hybernate
Workaround:
1 - kernel command line option "acpi_sleep=s3_bios"
2 - apt-get install powernowd
3 - HYBERNATE = platform in /etc/default/acpi-support
fixed hybernate, suspend to ram working but the PC shutdown when trying to go back.
Tried uswsusp, no change.
Probably buggy bios, decompiling/recompiling with INTEL iasl gives 3 warnings 1 error, I wasn't able to find a workaround
Asus P5Q-Pro M/B
Intel E8400 CPU
Nvidia 9600GT Video Card
GSkill DDR2 800Mhz 8Gb Ram
Ubuntu 8.10 64bit Desktop.
Sound, network and video all working perfectly.
Ubuntu 8.10
Board: Gigabyte GA-MA78GPM-DS2H
CPU: AMD 4850e (Chipset AMD780G)
Graphics: on-board ATI Radeon HD3200 (RS780)
I shared this problem (click!) first, even with 8.10 final (not 8.10rc), and fiddled a lot with drivers. Good thing is, if things go wrong, revert to standard xorg.conf or restore backup, you'll always have highres framebuffer graphics and never drop to textmode or lowres available (like in early Linux days)
Must read Wiki-pages: RadeonDriver, RadeonHD, RadeonHD (fglrx)
For ATI-newbies (like myself): yes, there are three ATI-drivers. Two Open-Source, one from ATI itself (fglrx). Good start to aquire knowledge about differences: Radeon vs. RadeonHD Drivers In H1'08. And there are some tons of forum discussions and articles around, everywhere.
At some point, the Ubuntu-On-board fglrx drivers worked out: enable restricted drivers, activate - you win.
drawback: even with the latest 8.10-bundled catalyst 8.54-drivers, Hardware-Accelleration seems to be limited or instable. I tried EVE-Online for curiosity, and it does not work (uses some customized cedega).
Current status for me: 2D and softrendering fine, 3D .. well .. I gotta try some Linux shooters.
Sound: on-board (southbridge SB700)
Works out of the box. 5.1 surround, mic. Don't have working SP/DIF-out yet, though. My AC3-Decoder gets some Dolby Stereo signal, but is quiet
DVB-T/USB2: MSI Digi Vox mini II (chipset em28xx)
Running and shows up as restricted driver, just like the ATI fglrx drivers. Takes some manual work, though. You wanna read: MSI DigiVox mini II V3.0, em28xx driver compilation in Intrepid (Beta), DVB-T USB-Devices and probably use the ubuntu installation package from here (I suceeded using the guides at the given URLs).
Switching channels regularly results in graphics going mad. Restarting the TV app is a workaround. Probably due to beta-fglrx-drivers (see previous paragraph on on-board-graphics).
1)Version Of Ubuntu: 8.10
2)Type Of Hardware: Digital TV Tuner Card (DVB-T)
3)Hardware Maker: Leadtek
4)Hardware Model: Winfast DTV2000 H
Worked out of the box. Installed Ubuntu 8.10 and then installed the Digital Television apps from the Add/Remove applications. This installed MeTV and everything autotuned and worked perfectly.
Also this is the first verion of Ubuntu to recognise the built in LAN controller on my Asus P5Q motherboard.

Ubuntu 8.10 32 bit
Intel P8400 - ok
webcam - ok
Synatic - ok
intel 5100 wifi - ok
etc etc
Geforce 9300m, needed property driver, then ok
Conclusion - ok =)
Ubuntu 8.10 (Standard 64-bit Installation CD)

- Intel Core 2 Duo E8400
- 4 GB of DDR2 RAM
- Asus EN8500GT Silent

Note: Installation was a total breeze, pop in standard CD and let it install itself. In fact I would say Ubuntu was easier to install than Vista Ultimate 64 bit!
Ubuntu 8.10
Hardware: Notebook Lenovo R61
Fully Compatibile.
I had to use wicd instead of Network manager applet, rather than that it's all ok.
