Compaq Presario 2200 and Xubuntu 9.04
September 1, 2009 by tibor
This is a 5 years old laptop. 1.4Ghz Celeron with 226MB RAM. Pretty ancient and slow.
It works perfectly well with Xubuntu 9.04, there is a wireless Broadcom BCM4306 802.11b/g rev 3 wifi card in it. I had to manually enable the restricted driver under, Applications, System, Hardware Drivers and then reboot.
At that point, wifi, sound, suspend and hibernate all worked perfectly.
