<p>EdvardM: </p> <hr /> <div>[[:Category:W500|W500]] '''this is work under progress'''<br /> <br /> I got a brand new W500 and installed Lucid Lynx Beta 1 on it, without changing any bios settings. Everything seems to work remarkably smoothly.<br /> <br /> ==Things not working/issues==<br /> <br /> As I've found most of the components are just working out of the box, I will only list the issues I have found so far:<br /> <br /> * Suspend/Resume<br /> ** after suspend, bluetooth applet crashed<br /> <br /> Update Aug 2010: Another user had issues with DVI output (couldn't get one) as well as acceleration not working in Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. Upgrading to <br /> Maveric Meerkat (most recent alpha) resolved the problem, bringing new many more minor issues the user could deal with (rhytmbox crashing sometimes etc)<br /> <br /> == Display / Xorg ==<br /> <br /> The laptop comes with [[Switchable Graphics]], so you can choose on your own which GPU to use. I haven't messed with whatever ubuntu chose. There is more useful information here: [[Install Mandriva 2009.0 on a ThinkPad W500]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:W500]][[Category:Ubuntu]]</div>
