<br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">I still have two (and a half) F8T3 issues that I consider blocking for me,</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">that I haven't really seen any else comment on or complaints about.</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">BTW. My hardware is a Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop with<br> Intel 3945 wireless and Intel video.</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">1/ I can no longer run the display in its native 1680x1050 mode.<br> In T1, it just worked (without needing the 915resolution kludge)<br> In T3, when I run system-config-display...
<br> a) if I select Video card->i810, it doesn't stick and reverts<br> back to 'unknown'.<br> b) I don't have the 1680x1050 resolution option on the 'settings'<br> pane (It only goes up to 1280x1024) despite the fact that
<br> the 'hardware' pane->Monitor lists it as LCD 1620x1050.<br> (Disclaimer: I haven't tried 915resolution again, but I didn't need it in F8T1.)<br><br>2/ I can run the Ethernet, provided I don't run NetworkManager AND Intel wireless doesn't work.
<br> (These issues may or may not be related...)<br><br>a) I want to use the 3945 wireless... I start NetworkManager/<br> NetworkManagerDispatcher/KNetworkManager, but /var/log/messages says:<br><br> Oct 12 09:29:45 fulkol kernel: iwl3945: Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On:
<br> Oct 12 09:29:45 fulkol kernel: Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work.<br><br> And nothing I've tried to-date can get the wireless going again!<br><br>b) When I run NetworkManager/NetworkManagerDispatcher/KNetworkManager then
<br> not only does KNetworkManager say 'No network device found', but<br> the eth0 actually stops working. I have to kill off *NetworkManager*,<br> and dhclient, and 'ifup eth0' manually to get it working again.
<br><br>Any comments/suggestions/status updates?<br><br>TIA<br>Fulko<br><br></span>
