This section will guide you through fixing bug or enable functionalities which doesn't work out of the box.
Suspend and Hibernate
To fix the suspension and hibernation bug you can use the 20_suspend-ehci-hcd script (also tested working in Ubuntu 11.10 & 14.04):
Paste the script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/20_suspend-ehci-hcd and save it
The script can have any name, but to ensure the load order, use the prefix 20_
add the execution permission:
suspend-ehci-hcd

nVidia Optimus video card switching
You can now use your nVidia card, using bumblebee: https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee (old version)
To use it, type the following into terminal: (old version)
Bumblebee is also available from PPA: https://launchpad.net/~mj-casalogic/+archive/bumblebee (new version!)
If you want to run 32-bit apps in Oneiric, enable Multi-arch support for 32-bit and run: sudo apt-get install virtualgl-libs:i386 source: https://launchpad.net/~bumblebee/+archive/stableThen use optirun command before any program that needs your nvidia-card.
you can use ironhide too but it will provide some graphical gliches:
Note: you need to reinstall xorg-video-intel for the intel 3d accelleration to work
Note: wine and stepmania will not work well when using a 64 bit system
Note: wine and stepmania will not work well when using a 64 bit system
If you still haven't got 3d accelleration on the intel GMA after reboot, you can optionally install the latest X.org-drivers: (note: don't do this if everything works without it!!)
As of Ubuntu 11.04 (and 11.10) the ironhide-app-settings returns some error-codes. A workaround for this bug is to use the menu-editor (typ 'main menu' into unity dash). Find your favorite app, select it, and click 'properties'. go to 'command' (middle line below the name, but above the discription) and change '<myapp>' into 'optirun <myapp>'. (add optirun and a space at the beginning of each command that needs nVidia graphics card). now you can run those apps the conventional way and they will run onto the nVidia. If ironhide-indicator is running it will tell you when the discrete card is turned on.
Note that with ironhide you can only enable your nVidia-card when you are using AC power. Otherwise you could possibly overload your battery.
Bluetooth
Fixed in Ubuntu 11.10
First, try install the compat wireless module and then restart. On Ubuntu 11.04 Linux-backports-modules-cw. If not, try compile from source:
First, try install the compat wireless module and then restart. On Ubuntu 11.04 Linux-backports-modules-cw. If not, try compile from source:
download the source driver compat-wireless-2011-05-15.tar.bz2 (or more updated) from http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/
unpack it:
run the script for compile only the bluetooth modules:
compile and install:
disable current bluetooth modules and load the new ones:
restart bluetooth demon:
otherwise reboot the pc.
After that, if your Bluetooth does not work, do
If your bluetooth chip is detected as 13d3:3304 in lsusb, you need to tell the ath3k driver that.
and add this lines
You may want to stop here, but, if you want, reboot the computer, and did the modprobe -a ath3k and rmmod btusb again. After this, the modprobe configuration is no longer required and it can be deleted.

Intel Turbo Boost
The turbo boost is supported, use a CPU applet for Gnome or KDE to see it.
You will most likely need to load the module for it:
and after, to verify that it do work, install acpidump:
then run turbostat in a terminal:
It will list you the speed of your cores.
To avoid to do this after each reboot, edit the modules file:

HDMI Support (Minor issue)
This bug was finally fixed in kernel 3.5
Little problem with HDMI support, if you try to turn on the computer with the HDMI cable plugged into the computer, Ubuntu will never boot, it hangs just after grub. When POST or grub is displayed, try to switch the monitor/display using the Fn+F8 shortcut to the laptop LCD and then back to external HDMI monitor. If this doesn't work, you can unplug the HDMI monitor before you boot. When you plug it back it all works fine.

HDMI Video
TO DO
Some TV's only allow you to use a resolution of 640X480. Most TV's can be used through 1280X720.
HDMI Audio
TO DO
HDMI audio can be enabled by changing the default hardware profile of your soundcard in the sound-configuration screen. Note that you have to change it back every time when you stop using the HDMI-interface.
DVD
If DVDs don't play after installing CSS, then the region may not have been set on the DVD drive. Install regionset:
and run it:
Multi-touch touchpad
Multi-touch gestures are supported for the N53's Elantech touchpad. First add the this PPA to your system:
Then install it by running:
Reboot and open System Settings... > Mouse and Touchpad, then, in the Touchpad tab, under Scrolling, choose Two-finger scrolling.
Note: it is a good idea to untick the 'Disable touchpad while typing' box, as this seems to cause the touchpad to stop responding on occasion. I haven't been able to trigger the bug manually, but it did seem to stop occurring once unticking this box.
Unity 3D
Unity 3D works 'out of the box', without any modification to the standard installation. Although, during installation, notify-osd bubbles do contain some artifacts and have thick black borders. This does not carry through to the desktop once installed, thankfully.
