| [04:04] <putz3000> I am looking to try a ubuntu laptop install and had a couple of questions. 1) any one know the success of 8.04 on Dell XPS M1530? | |
| [04:05] <pwnguin> putz3000: have you checked the testing team wiki? | |
| [04:06] <putz3000> not recently. I looked at it right shortly before 8.04. but at the time I dont recall seeing anything on my laptop | |
| [04:06] <putz3000> I will go back and dig through there and see. I also am thinking of doing a 64bit install but still want to run 32bit apps. is installing the 32bit lib very complicated? I am not too experianced with linux and have a love hate relationship todate..lol | |
| [04:07] <pwnguin> have you already bought the laptop? | |
| [04:09] <putz3000> yes. I didnt buy it specificaly to run linux although I had the notion of attempting to dual boot. I have ran a couple of distros on the laptop and as far as I know there was not major probs. I think i only did the live 7.10 on the laptop though. | |
| [04:09] <putz3000> I guess I was more curious about any known issues that might not have prevented install, but would have shown up during usage. | |
| [04:12] <pwnguin> launchpad might be a better resource | |
| [04:12] <pwnguin> as best I can tell, this team is about fixing laptops | |
| [04:13] <pwnguin> (but i havent seen much of that going on in this channel specifically =( ) | |
| [04:13] <putz3000> ah. guess that makes since after rereading the sentance on the ubuntu site - testing team. lol. sorry for the probs. thanks for the tip though | |
| [04:14] <pwnguin> well, dell technically pays for support | |
| [04:15] <pwnguin> im not sure if your pick is on the list | |
| [04:15] <putz3000> that is true as well..lol. no worries, thanx | |
| [04:16] <pwnguin> interesting | |
| [04:16] <pwnguin> http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/list/?search=dell | |
| [04:17] <pwnguin> the M1330 is certified | |
| [04:18] <pwnguin> im guessing yours is the one with nvidia graphics | |
