Summer is…Lazy
So I haven’t posted for (wow, just looked, I started the last 3 post “So…”) a while, not that anyone reads this. Facebook is helpful for staying in touch with people I suppose, though i wasn’t able to find any of my friends from England. The last few days I’ve been trying to get Ubuntu running on my laptop. Ubuntu is actually a really great distro, it recognizes almost all your hardware out of the box (ok off the live cd) and is ready to go. However, my laptop is also a tablet and Ubuntu requires some configuration to get it taking advantage of this fact. I fucked up big time once and reinstalled (though it may not have been necessary, but it did get dvd playback working). Today, I finally managed to get it all working, except for the accelerometer (for which no driver exists). I then promptly fucked it up again somehow killing my keyboard. After a good deal of copying and pasting I managed to discover the problem and right it. The only problem is, now that I’m done setting up, what do I do now?
If by some chance someone trying to configure their tablet with ubuntu happens upon this post, I’d be happy to point you in the right direction.
