[Peter Kis <md2z34@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I've just installed 11.04 and the situation is the same. I had a perfectly
working system with 10.10, but now intel integrated VGA card works only.
Maybe this is not important, but I observed that the STAMINA/SPEED
LED behaves differently than earlier. Earlier the STAMINA or the SPEED LED
depending on the switch position was illuminated during the whole booting
procedure, but now the green LED turns on just before the kdm starts.

Some system parameters:
Model: VGN-Z21XN
Bios: R2169M3
The Raphael's janitor script runs without errors.
The sony-laptop-zseries-0.9np7 module is compiled correctly. The kernel
version: 2.6.38-8-generic

Regards

Peter
