Soud works great, Hibernate also works flawless. Wifi and card reader power saving do not work at the time. Wifi Switch works for me.

pretty nice! does all hardware work out of the box on Xubuntu?

[racoq]

Almost, i had to compile the lastest wireless drivers from the madwifi snapshot, since the wireless driver is not included in Ubuntu Hardy, other than that, i've only made some tweaks.

Its called dock

[asphixmx]

It is a dock. The best is avant-window-navigator. You must be running compiz fusion to load this dock. Also there is the "kiba dock" and a dock in gdesklets (the last one doesnt requiere compiz fusion)

Not Functional: * Hibernate on A110L * Card Reader power saving * wifi power saving * wifi kill switch

Partial Function: * Audio - there is sound, issues detailed below

this is great! you should try and install kubuntu.

Are you able to install VLC and access shared folder on the network? Those are the problems I've had with Limpus, and I winder if Xubuntu might be the answer.
