[12:38] <rsferreira> My notebook only boots Gusty on battery. On ac power it crashes some seconds after gdm is loaded, unless I set acpi=off in the kernel line. Has anyone seen something like this?
[04:38] <dan_l> hey, can anybody help with laptop selection?  I'm looking to buy something budget, but I'd like to pop Ubuntu on there so I can learn linux.  I've read a lot of documentation, I just want to confirm some thoughts.
[05:53] <dan_l> can anybody take a look at a spec sheet for me?
