SmartCard Reader
- It seems that the integrated smartcard reader does not work under linux (see HP Support document, Ricoh Smart Card Reader Stops Functioning After Installing Linux).
Power consumption
- On Linux, get instant battery power consumption with (unplug power cord first!):
watch grep rate /proc/acpi/battery/BAT*/state
- Maverick
- Luminosity set to lightest
- Text console (X at login console, no X activity)
- Wireless off
- Lowest we get on idle is 947mA on BAT1.
- Precise
- Stock install, default driver: 1898mA on BAT1.
- Stock install, default driver, min. luminosity: 1631mA on BAT1.
