[02:18] anyone running gusty on a Asus C90s? [02:18] I just wanted to know if its been tested and if it has any issues? [04:55] anyone here? [05:01] nobody here but us zombie processes. [05:41] * MenZa zombies on. [08:24] Can anyone add test results on the LaptopTestingTeam wikipage? === luka74 is now known as Lure [16:16] MenZa: off course [16:18] I shall do that then. :) === offby1` is now known as offby1 [17:31] Hello? [17:34] halloo? [17:34] nobody here but us zombie processes. [17:36] hi, I'm interested in writing a review of Ubuntu on an Acer TM 2428 [17:36] could you guide me on to the procedures [17:38] I don't know any such procedures [17:40] What do I do to get the laptop into the list? [17:40] no idea :-| [17:41] I know there's a web site with reviews; I assume it's a wiki. [17:41] Sorry if I sound n00bish -- what's this channel for then? [17:41] you probably have to make an account for yourself, and then you'll be able to create a new page. That's just a guess. [17:41] I use this channel to whine about how ubuntu doesn't work on my Thinkpad :-) [17:41] (although to be fair recently it's been working well enough) [17:42] Can I whine about the sleep function misbehaving on my TM as well? [17:42] sure! [17:42] suspend and hibernate rarely work right, in my experience. [17:42] along with sound, video, and wireless cards :-| [17:42] whenever they do work, I feel like I've witnessed a small miracle [17:43] true, so does the screen lock function [17:45] What do I do to get the side buttons funcitoing? [17:46] I mean like the Wi-Fi switches and the Bluetooth switches? [17:46] no idea. [17:47] next question :-) [17:48] lol, nice try. [17:55] offby1: what's your thinkpad model? [17:55] T60 [17:55] I rather love it, by the way [17:55] even though I've already worn the decals off many of the keys [17:58] I regret not buying a TP [18:01] i bet used ones are reasonably priced [18:06] I couldn't even get a "used" one, no stock. [18:06] My Acer TM is getting flimsy and fragile [18:08] Thinkpads are nice, but wouldn't ya know it, their price reflects that. [18:09] I got ubuntu working reasonably well on a Dell Latitude C640, which will probably set you back about two cents these days; I only got rid of it because it was physically falling apart (because it had been dropped a few times too many) [18:09] so which ones do you recommend? [18:10] which of what? [18:10] that "best" runs Linux (too broad a word) [18:13] couldn't tell ya. [18:13] All I know is the two I've mentioned work reasonably well. [18:13] :) [18:13] there used to be a company that specialised in selling laptops with linux pre-installed. I think they're out of business now. [18:13] So how do I add my lap to the list? [18:13] too bad [18:13] like I said earlier: I assume you need to create an account on that wiki. [18:14] ok, can try. [18:14] Is there a guideline I can follow [18:14] copy an existing page, obviously. [18:14] I searched launchpad, but couldn't find any [18:14] the web site I'm thinking of is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/, by the way [18:14] ok, thanks [18:15] same one [18:15] yes [18:15] another option is http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkWiki [18:15] but I don't use /own a TP :( [18:21] oh yeah [18:21] oops [18:21] I was just pasting a bunch of my bookmarks without really thinking. [18:21] "thinking", get it; haw haw. [18:22] lol === offby1` is now known as offby1 [22:42] anyone running gutsy on a Asus C90s? just wanted to kno if there are any issues? [22:53] I would expect wireless, video, sound, suspend, and hibernation to all fail. [22:53] Other than that I expect it'll be fine :-| [22:53] Note that I've never even _seen_ an Asus computer; I'm just a pessimist [22:55] offby1, thats odd the ubuntu wiki says my wireless and video are supported [22:58] You're just a grinch. [22:59] yup [23:00] like I said: pessimist [23:00] Yea, I've been looking on google and the only thing I could find regarding Gusty and this notebook is a problem with one of the FN keys... A problem which I really don't care about. [23:02] ï'm §ðð ßð®êÐ. === nixnoob is now known as nixnoob^away === offby1`` is now known as offby1
