Ubuntu Hardy Heron
April 9th, 2008
I installed Hardy (8.04) on my laptop because Gutsy did not run very nice out of the box and I was too lazy to make it work smoothly. So I went for the beta version. So far it runs ok. There are glitches, but it’s stable and it looks good.
I run it on a sony vaio TZ21MN, the smallest of the TZ series.
What works:
- Graphics on the intel 950
- Network, wireless and wired
- Sound, including switching off the speakers when I plugin the headphone
- All ’special’ keys: volume, brightness, media keys
Still strugling with:
- Suspend, this is extermely annoying since it did work after one update, but died after the next
- Webcam, frankly I don’t care
- The MemoryStick and SD slots, irritating, but I can live with this
