New Laptop Added - Compaq Presario C304NR

[Richard Johnson]

Hey Team,

I purchased a Compaq Presario C304NR today and have tested it against Edgy and 
Feisty (Kubuntu). Only issues, 1 minor and 1 major, but both fixed.

1) Resolution at 1024x768 instead of 1280x800 - Fixed with 915resolution 
package (sudo apt-get install 915resolution) - All I had to do was restart X 
and it was working.

2) WiFi - Broadcom 4311 - bcm43xx-fwcutter does not work with this (doesn't 
work with any of the suggested files in the README.tgz). Fixed by following 
http://wiki.waningsun.net/index.php?title=Dell_E1405_%26_Linux_HOWTO and 
using the latest ndiswrapper :( from the ndiswrapper website (v1.31 was used)

All issues have been resolved, and only a few function keys do not work, but 
with some tweaking they should work soon. Refer to 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Compaq/CompaqPresarioC304NR for 
further details. I am available for any extra tests if need be. Thanks.
