I could get access in my company to an older Latitude E6330 with an i5 CPU. It seems to use a similar chipset: $ fgrep iwn0 dmesg.e6630 iwn0: <Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205> mem 0xf7d00000-0xf7d01fff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci2 $ grep intel Xorg.0.log.e6630 | grep "HD Gra" [ 119.614] (--) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 I booted it from a prepared USB stick containing a complete system, compiled ports, Xorg and KDE4 and all went up fine, as well the WLAN came up. I think I will order it (they asked only some 730 Euro for the used item, including varanty).

It's probably possible but I haven't figured out how yet. I had a similar issue with sound lower/up/off/on and had to use on my Acer Aspire some xmodmap tweakings: xmodmap -e "keycode 174 = F21" # volume down xmodmap -e "keycode 176 = F22" # volume up xmodmap -e "keycode 140 = F23" # volume mute HIH matthias -- Matthias Apitz | /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign: E-mail: guru@unixarea.de | \ / - No HTML/RTF in E-mail WWW: http://www.unixarea.de/ | X - No proprietary attachments phone: +49-170-4527211 | / \ - Respect for open standards | en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII_Ribbon_Campaign
