[04:49] <Dan_L> Hi folks.  Has anybody ever tried to run ubuntu on an compaq f730us?  I've checked the usual suspects, but I haven't found anything
[07:22] <howfixbadubuntu> howfixbadubuntu?
[15:52] <h3sp4wn> rough 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)
[16:01] <SANone> I worked on my notebook yetserday.. worked like a charm.. an I boot it today Grub Error 17!
[16:01] <SANone> No other OS installed...
[16:01] <SANone> only one HD
[16:03] <SANone> anyone in here knows where it came from and how I can make sure it never happens again?
[16:42] <csabull> hi
[16:43] <csabull> I have an Asus M6R
[16:43] <csabull> but Gusty doesn't works correct
[16:43] <csabull> (sorry my poor english)
[16:44] <csabull> Can anybody help me?
[16:45] <csabull> oh, I see... "...not for support"
[16:45] <csabull> bye
[16:45] <csabull> sorry
[17:03] <NutsPT> hello
[17:03] <NutsPT> My A8JS
[17:03] <NutsPT> should have the AMD64 version right
[17:03] <NutsPT> its a C2D
[17:42] <rsferreira> If 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?
[22:03] <yonkeltron> i think i have found a bug in suspend on my thinkpad t60
[22:03] <yonkeltron> i've checked all the docs i've been able to locate and even tried reinstalling and reconfiguring uswsusp
[22:04] <yonkeltron> while 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 all
[22:05] <yonkeltron> sleep worked on in feisty but since upgrading to gutsy, it has been broken
[22:06] <yonkeltron> i 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 bug
[23:16] <OiPenguin> I'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?
[23:17] <OiPenguin> I don't expect Ubuntu to be preinstalled, however family requires XP/Vista so that has to be installed.
