Clear message

This computer is mostly all Intel chipset. It is light and compact and doesn't use much energy, but if you think it is completely silent, think again. The HDD is gone, but the CPU fan can be heard in certain acoustic settings.

=Post-Ubuntu installation set-up= Wifi is Atheros -> install MadWifi Driver (see below) Ethernet is Attansic -> works with linux, just needs a cold boot to be recognized after a new installation (see below)

  • I had to remove the battery and power after the install to get the ethernet working. Bizzare but it worked.
  • There are other tweaks (most important being to load the patched madwifi driver).
