Tested with Ubuntu 11.04.
Generally, Ubuntu 11.04 is working good. The only major problem so far was that the speakers are not turning off, when headphones are plugged in.
Discussion
With grml64 2011.12 (a live cd) the speakers turn off with connected head phones.
I have the same problem headphones somebody's known how solve it?
