System 76 sells them preconfigured with Ubuntu as well. http:// system76.com/
I almost purchased one from them but I want something smaller than 14 inches; i.e. ultra light, under 4 lbs, 12" max but 10" would be even better for travel. (and unfortunately I need a windows path for work so I'm still looking for a machine I can dual boot rather than just Ubuntu.) I was just thinking about this type of "bug" this morning. UbuntuDemon and others on the forums were all searching for laptop recommendations. It would be nice to have a section called, "The Community Recommends. . . " with a list of a few desktop and laptop configurations that have been proven stable. Everything seems to be reversed at the moment; i.e. there's a list of bugs with certain setups but not "here's what's known to work." I found this page to have some good notebook info as well: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptopsOthers? highlight=%28notebook%29 Dinda On Oct 1, 2006, at 4:04 AM, Matthew East wrote: > It's very difficult to fix this bug, because such a list would have to > be maintained for the whole world.
