Hi,<br><br>The Getting Started Guide's troubleshooting guide<br><br> <a href="http://www.laptop.org/en/laptop/start/troubleshooting.shtml" target="_blank">http://www.laptop.org/en/laptop/start/troubleshooting.shtml</a>
<br><br>is recommending that users email bug reports to bugs at <a href="http://laptop.org" target="_blank">laptop.org</a>,<br>which is apparently incorrect, according to bugs-owner. Probably<br>the guide should be corrected.
<br><br>If this is not the correct list either, and if the problem described<br>below is an isolated hardware failure rather than a software<br>issue, could someone suggest the correct list to email to?<br><br>Thanks,<br>
