As for compatibility, just check google, I did, it said my HP510 work with Ubuntu fine, apart from the touch pad, wifi and graphics resolution, but gave a set of instructions to fix these problems, just a few lines each. So I ordered one... by the time I got it a week later, the first update off the web I did (with a wired lan connection and a usb mouse) fixed the touch pad and the wifi by itself. The 'apt-get install resolution915' realised the problem by itself and changed the screen resolution automatically (instead of the documented fix of an edited conf file). Even the graphics drivers work to the point that the Desktop special Effects can be turned on and they just work... The laptop is just superb, and with XP out of the way, I'm grinning like a loon... :) -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
