dijenerate | hi all | 16:38 |
---|---|---|
dijenerate | anyone here using a Fujitsu U810 or Vulcan Flipstart? | 16:39 |
dijenerate | anyone awake in here? | 16:40 |
dijenerate | whenever this is seen I'd like some help | 16:49 |
dijenerate | I'm currently using a Vaio UX280P with Ubuntu Studio Edition... | 16:50 |
dijenerate | I'm used to the Vaio's performance but have finally had it with it's poor battery life (especially with the WWAN in use) and it's poor wifi performance (small antenna syndrome) | 16:51 |
dijenerate | some background as to my linux experience... I'm a former Zaurus developer and I wrote this tutorial: http://micropctalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3026 | 16:54 |
dijenerate | simple, nothing too fancy but proof I'm not a nooboob | 16:55 |
dijenerate | anyway, my problem, I'm looking for a new machine, and I'm trying to decide what to buy... | 16:55 |
dijenerate | I also have a Flipstart E1001 (who doesn't now with their low prices) but alas I have no working Mouse buttons, trackstick and can't access the Dinoboard/InfoPane which happens to control the WWAN module's power | 16:57 |
dijenerate | the wifi is the AR5523 from Atheros on USB which means ndiswrapper only... bleh! :( | 17:00 |
dijenerate | oh, and I can't seem to get the internal speakers to work, even though audio is perfect via the headphone jacks | 17:00 |
dijenerate | other than that, great battery life, well made hardware no decent linux support... what a waste! | 17:01 |
dijenerate | I can't seem to find anyone else working on the linux support for it, that's why I'm here... HELP!!! | 17:02 |
dijenerate | If this is a no go, I'll have to sell it and look at something else | 17:02 |
dijenerate | I've considered the U810 but so far all reports are that the 800MHz Stealey is a waste of time and it can't even multitask | 17:03 |
dijenerate | of course these people ran Winbloze! | 17:03 |
dijenerate | anyone here try it with a real O.S.? how's performance (and remember I'm coming from Vaio UX usage here) | 17:04 |
