Hi everyone, I have HP Pavilion DV6 Laptop - Intel Core i5 (1st generation) with 4GB RAM and 500GB HDD and ATI Radeon Graphics + Intel Built-in Graphics (on Windows 7, I can choose between those two).
I bought it few years ago with Windows 7 and can't remember when, I installed Linux on it. Long story short and I'm still shocked while writing this and surprised but that is the truth: This machine works 'better' in Windows 7 than Linux on these area: a- More Battery Life in Windows 7 (almost 2 hours while only 1 with Linux). b- Less Heat and Fan Noise in Windows 7 (with Linux, heat sometimes go above 70c and while doing nothing, it is 60c - 65c). c- Brightness (can't adjust it with Linux like I do with Windows 7) And to my surprise, my old test machine starts up and shuts down even faster O_o Check my signature to find out the Hardware Details of my Test Machine. Regardless what version I use, both Ubuntu and Lubuntu, all the same performance. I hate to say this but Linux on this machine is a real pain. Am I the only one with this issue? Thanks! P.S. Despite the many threads about this machine, non solved so far and that is why I'm still looking for a solution. -- *Best Regards,* *amjjawad <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad/>* *Start Ubuntu<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/CommunicationsTeam/WOWLubuntu/StartUbuntu> * *Test Machine: ASUS F3F Laptop - **Intel Core Duo T2350 @ 1.86GHz with 489MB RAM*
