In all my years with Linux, this is the first laptop on which everything like sound, mike, webcam, wifi, screen resolution, external display, sleep and resume, function keys, even the sd card read/write all work out of the box with Ubuntu 10.10. Amazing!!
Comes with DOS only so no M$ tax on purchase price. Intel Core i3 370M @ 2.4 Ghz, 4gb DDR3 ram, 500Gb hdd, 14" WLED screen. About 35000+
I will recommend this to anyone wanting to use Linux on a laptop.
Great! A few of my clients have 14R and the 15R but with Windows 7 so I have not experimented much with them. The other +ve item I have noted: the BIOS's have CPU virtualization option on notebooks with i[357] CPUs, unlike the previous gen. notebook's BIOS wherein vitualization was crippled even though the CPU had the extension.
Can you please confirm whether you can insert the kvm-intel module and the creation of the device /dev/kvm?
e.g. # modprobe kvm-intel; ls -l /dev/kvm
