Anyone here used ubuntu 9.04 on their cq40? cause I need some help ==
there's no sound from my speaker and the card reader doesn't work in ubuntu? I tried doing the things mentioned here == it says use "options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1" but I changed it to snd-hda-ati since I'm using AMD. But still there's no sound...
Any idea I can get this 2 things work?

Thanks in advance!

nope, actually that command "options snd-hda-intel enable msi=1" is for Intel HD Audio, so you change it to AMD won't do a thing,

here's some link that maybe can help,

You're on the list. Currently the is no support from HP. Since HP doesnt care about the premium DV5z which shares the same platform with this model, I dont think you will get hybrid CF.

Last time I used Win 7 first beta and the only driver problem I had was microphone not working with IDT's Vista driver.

Can you test your built in mic with Skype or etc? Last time I had problems with Win 7 using Vista drivers.

Just wonder is this the only laptop with gaming graphics card with HDMI output?

Acer 4730gz is certainly tempting but no HDMI output is big let down though.

it sure canot help much .

laptop cooler and desktop cooler is different .

desktop cooler can help to lower temperature significantly. but laptop cooler only can lower at most 5 celcius for the laptop imo

I think my laptop has problem =_= and yet those freaking HP Service centre engineers has no idea why my laptop cause so hot and lags when playing any games or playing a songs up to an hours will cause lag!!

right now when I was using my laptop for first minute when starting on with Balanced battery settings the temperature was 70 C and after plug in the Notepal Infinite it comes better ... 85 C after 5 minute (original 88 C after 5 minute) and open a game after 5 minute is 99 C and it starts lags and hits until 108 C ..... =.= I touch my coolpad... it already become hot pad and it was freaking hot .... not helping + wasting money =_= why I'm so unlucky .......

lol!!!! 108C even worse than the Compaq V3000. have you updated to the latest bios? tell HP engineers to solve the problem for you, rather than spending time with the hot oven/microwave
