SeanyDI just installed kubuntu 8.04 on my toshiba a75 laptop12:28

SeanyDany ideas?12:30
hubuntuhello... I have a contact at Zepto who could be up to let me test some machines with Ubuntu. I'm thnking of finding an automatized way to do this (using the Live CD, shoot some script, test what works and what does not , get on to the next machine). this guys sell computers originally build by Compal (same as System76, and many other Laptop "manufacturers"/re-branders)13:51
hubuntuwould you recommend using the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingDataScraper ?13:51
hubuntuI mean is there some script that I could Use in order to grab the machines specs or will a lshw do the trick?13:52

simiraI've heard nothing since the post on forum.ubuntu.no15:11
hubuntuI did take contact with some people, but we got a big NO from  everybody15:28
hubuntupeople is very active here in Norwya (think of Translations and FLOSS use in general) but there is not much of a community, beyond the virtual one and well the InstallFest which are very good once in a while, inded15:29
