Ubuntu detects the volume buttons and accepts them as shortcuts in Keyboard Shortcuts, but it does not detect the ThinkVantage or the mute buttons. Also, after the update and subsequent reboot, the volume appears to be off but is really on at a very low volume. The up and down sounds are heard when the volume buttons are pressed, but volume doesn't change.

Update: ATI Fglrx no longer breaks over suspend resume

The Catalyst 8.01 drivers (fglrx 8.45.2) are SLUB-enabled and no longer break Suspend/Resume on Gutsy. The outstanding issues for Suspend/Resume under Gutsy 7.10 for this driver are essentially the same as previously experienced on Feisty 7.04.

Really DISABLE_MODULES ?

I was having the suspend resume problem and the fglrx upgrade instructions where very helpful. However, I skipped the /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common step as it did not make sense. Could this be removed from the instructions?
