Some minor irritating points are still not ironed out. If you have any suggestion, please let me know...
When waking from SUSPEND mode, the keyboard speed settings
are not restored, despite installing a script
`30kbdrate' in `/etc/apm/event.d'. It is
always executed upon wake-up, but only works sometimes.
Running kbdrate twice in `30kbdrate' fixes the
problem. I don't know why. Be aware that apt-get
dist-upgrade might touch this file in your back.
The processor remains at the speed at which it started. If the main supply was plugged in, it will run at 2GHz; if it booted on battery, then it will only run at 1.2GHz.
Fn+Mu (on a French keyboard) allows me to switch between the two frequencies.
The hard drive always makes strange little noises, as if the heads were banging from one side to the other, whether there is disk access or not. These come every 30 seconds or so.
(Note from the translator: I have a feeling that the hard drive in my Toshiba Satellite 3000 does something similar, although not on such a regular basis. As this Toshiba runs under Win XP almost exclusively, that may point out some actual hardware problem that has nothing to do with Linux, on a whole range of laptop hard disks. To be investigated...)
Calling the BIOS using Fn+F1 under X freezes the laptop. Same goes for checking the battery state using Fn+F3
I haven't tried it. If you tell me how, I'll test it and update this document.
