## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/PackardBellE63000 * Contact: [[EmmanueleBassi]] * Make: Packard Bell * Brand: Easy Note * Model: E6300 * Website: http://support.packardbell.com/it/mypc/?PibItemNr=PB15B00006 == Current Issues == The video card of this model is a S3 Unichrome Pro (K8M800) model. The driver inside X.org does not have full support for this card, and the reworked driver is not yet available. Thus, you have to use X in VESA compatibility mode, which yields a 1024x768 resolution. Both the S-Video and RGB ports for the external monitor are not available. The modem is a winmodem (AC97 based), and probably uses a proprietary driver. ACPI needs tweaking: I needed to explicitely enable hibernating and sleeping by editing /etc/defaults/acpi-support. The PCCard reader needs also tweaking with the yenta_socket module, using the override_bios property. == Hardware details == || || in Hoary? || in Breezy (current stable)? || || Installation works? || yes || yes || ||<-4 tablewidth="75%"> '''Hardware Information''' || ||<-4> '''Screen & Monitors''' || ||<|2> '''Device''' ||<-2> '''Works?''' ||<|2> '''Bug #''' || || in Hoary? || in Breezy (current stable)? || || Screen || Yes || Yes || || || Correct resolution? || No (1024x768 instead of 1280x1024) || No (1024x768 instead of 1280x1024) || || || Correct refresh rate? || Yes || Yes || || || 3D Acceleration || No || No || || || External monitor works? || No || No || || || External monitor - mirrors || No || No || || || External monitor - extend desktop || No || No || || ||<-4> '''Power Management''' || || Battery detected? || Yes || Yes || || || Hibernates? || No || Yes || || || Sleep || Yes || Yes || || || Dim monitor on battery || No || No || || || Blank monitor on inactivity || Yes || Yes || || || Lid Close || Yes || No || || || Cpu frequency scaling || Yes || Yes || || ||<-4> '''Sound''' || || Sound works? || Yes || Yes || || || Correct volume? || Yes || Yes || || || Hardware volume switch || Yes || Yes || || || Headphone jack || Untested || Untested || || || Mic jack || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Networking''' || || Wired NIC || Yes || Yes || || || PCMCIA NIC || No || Yes (DWL-G650+) || || || Modem || Untested || Untested || || ||<-4> '''Touchpad & Mice''' || || Touchpad || Yes || Yes || || || Touchpad - Doubletap = double click || Yes || Yes || || || Touchpad - Scroll down side || Yes || Yes || || || External mouse - USB || Yes || Yes || || ||<-4> '''Additional Hardware''' || || CD/DVD drive || Yes || Yes || || || PCMCIA cards || No || Yes || || ## Add or remove keys as needed for your laptop.
