h3sp4wnrough probability gutsy will 100% work properly on an ibm thinkpad X31 (i.e docking whilst suspended etc and it just all working perfectly) I can put up with gnome if its going to work flawlessly (otherwise I will just use something else)15:52

rsferreiraIf on ac power, Ubuntu hangs on GDM unless I set acpi=off. On battery, it runs fine. On feisty, used to run fine on battery or ac power. Has anyone seen something like this?17:42
yonkeltroni think i have found a bug in suspend on my thinkpad t6022:03
yonkeltroni've checked all the docs i've been able to locate and even tried reinstalling and reconfiguring uswsusp22:03
yonkeltronwhile my laptop seems to go down for sleep fine (although it's much faster than it was in feisty), upon opening the lid, the fan kicks on but the sleep light doesn't blink and the disk doesn't seem to spin up at all22:04
yonkeltronsleep worked on in feisty but since upgrading to gutsy, it has been broken22:05
yonkeltroni know this channel is not for support so i'm asking if there is something i'm missing or whether or not i should open a bug22:06
OiPenguinI'm desperately searching for a laptop which will work out of the box as dual boot Ubuntu and xp/vista for less than $1500.  Has anyone got an advice?23:16
OiPenguinI don't expect Ubuntu to be preinstalled, however family requires XP/Vista so that has to be installed.23:17
