I just bought a Asus 1015e with Win8 on it (only OS available out-of-the-box for 1015e in France) and I'd like, if possible, to install a valid Ubuntu on it.
This bug seems to show that it is currently impossible to test Ubuntu on 1015e, am I right? Does anyone have some positive experience with Ubuntu on this 1015e ?

Title:
  Ubuntu live USB will not boot on Asus 1015e in UEFI mode

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I recently got an Asus 1015e laptop and I cannot get a live USB to
  boot in UEFI mode. When I try to boot it I get to the Grub menu, but
  after selecting an option it just hangs at a blank screen. It looks
  like it doesn't loading anything, even the kernel. It just hangs
  immediately. The only way I've been able to get it to boot is to
  disable Secure Boot and enable CSM (legacy BIOS support) but this
  won't play nicely with a Windows 8 dual boot. I've tested with 13.04
  and the 7-11-13 saucy daily image. The hardware details are here
