Re: Ubuntu in ACER 5830TG

 

Hi Michele,


I did exactly what I was planning to do and it has been working extremely well.

Both Win and Ubuntu are now working as dual booting with no problem.


cheers,


Augusto

    Hi Augusto,

      

      how was at the end your experience?

      I'm running 12.04 Kubuntu on a 3820TG, and almost everything works
      fine. Only problem is the ATI card that cannot be switched but
      only turned off. But I've got really good autonomy and it's a
      great laptop!

      

      Cheers,

      

      Michele

        I'm planning to install Ubuntu 12.04 in an ACER laptop (5830TG)
        as

        a dual-booting system with Win 7.

        I was wondering if someone in this list has had some experiences

        (good, bad?) doing this. I'm planning to partition the
        hard-drive from

        Win 7 (using disk 'shrink') are there problems/dangers doing
        this?

        

        Thanks for any help you can provide.

        

        Cheers,

        

        Augusto
