    There are 3 different driver types for a US Panasonic CF-F8 laptop:
    CF-F8E (mk1)
    CF-F8E (mk1.5)
    CF-F8G
    Is this a typo? Both mk1 and mk1.5 refer to CF-F8E.

    My laptop is CF-F8EWEZZAM. Which one is it, mk1 or mk1.5?

    This is easy
    Look in the bios screen
    F2 while booting
    It will show the revision # as the first part of the bios # on the first screen

    Oh, ok thanks!

    Never would've thought that by 'mk' they mean BIOS revision #.

    Mine says BIOS v1.50, Embedded Controller v1.00. I guess that means mk1.5?
