| p14r | Hoi everyone. Got a lubuntu question: I've just ordered a netbook (Acer Travelmate B117) and want to install Linux whilst ensuring two things: | 20:22 |
| p14r | 1) Use all the features the laptop offers (sound, screen-brightness, wireless, function keys, etc.) | 20:22 |
| p14r | 2) Use as little power as possible / use advanced power management features | 20:23 |
| p14r | Is that possible with Lubuntu and is Lubuntu the best choice for this? What procedure do you recommend? | 20:23 |
| lynorian | p14r, well there is a terminal applicatoin called powertop for number 2 | 20:23 |
| p14r | Thanks for any help. | 20:23 |
| lynorian | For 1 I percensonally don't know about that hardware what sound and wirelesschipset does it have? | 20:24 |
| p14r | CPU is a Quadcore Intel Pentium N3710, the chipset is basically built around it (it could be all intel) | 20:26 |
| p14r | Does Lubuntu offer the same support for function keys and special keys as Ubuntu? | 20:27 |
| p14r | Out of the box, I mean? | 20:27 |
| lynorian | I think for some we have them for multimedia things yes | 20:27 |
| p14r | How does installing TLP on top of Lubuntu laptop mode work? Or does it fail? Any experiences with that? | 20:29 |
| lynorian | I am not that familar with TLP but it should work like any other package | 20:30 |
| p14r | Mmmmh. Ok. If you had to save power on a laptop, which distribution would you use? | 20:45 |
| lynorian | p14r, I don't have battery life problems normally but that is because my battery is a massive 12 cell | 21:06 |
