Issues

Power management

  • set performance/battery saving
  • set battery threshold
  • docking station (udev rules on connect / disconnect, including HDMI issue)

Keyboard

  • touchpad tapping & natural scroll not working
  • select (home, end) with numpad not working
  • mute mic button not working
  • sound volume increase/decrease and mute buttons not working
  • print button not taking screenshot
  • set backlight of keyboard programmatically
  • show caps lock indicator when key is pressed

OS

  • notifications not showing up in window manager
  • 'A start job is running for enp0s31f6...' - at boot time
  • 'mount(2) system call failed: Structure needs cleaning.' after OS reinstall on multimedia partition

Audio

  • sound either not working correctly or noizzy
  • audio device usage 100% at all times
  • play sound when USB device is connected / disconnected

Display

  • set brightness of display
  • multihead through HDMI

GPU

  • NVIDIA video card not working, currently running only integrated Intel card
  • NVIDIA card works now, but intel doesn't, getting bumblebee working is the next step
  • * NVIDIA card (optirun/primusrun) not working after getting out of RAM suspend
  • hashcat not recognizing card, opencl package missing
  • because now NVIDIA card gets enabled in suspend mode, looks like battery gets drained. Needs further investigation

Bluetooth

Misc

  • HTTP(s) requests are loading very slow, after disconnecting from VPN (PPTP)
  • Firefox not saving "Remember me" passwords - solved with reinstall of OS
  • HP printer not working
  • fingerprint scanner not working - although there is a prototype available here which looks promising
  • disable auto-login
  • login with fingerprint
  • CTRL+ALT+Left moves desktops in loop (3,2,1,4,3,2,1,4...) instead of stopping at desktop 1 (3,2,1, stop)
  • teamviewer15 not starting
