Subject: Ubuntu and HP Pavillion laptop dv2000
Hello, I have an HP Pavillion dv2000 laptop that's about 1 year old. The
hardware is exactly as it came from HP. The preinstalled Win Vista on the laptop got broken and I want to try something new. I am fairly computer knowledgable. I have made many home-built PCs, however this is the first laptop I ever owned and I've never seriously used Linux. Now I am thinking I will try Ubuntu on this laptop. I've heard that driver support for some Linux distros lags way behind. Do you suppose I will have driver issues between Ubuntu and this HP Pavillion 2000 ? I do want to use the wireless internet and the sound hardware. I don't mind spending a little time searching for drivers. But what if drivers aren't available or they have a lot of bugs? Does anybody here use Ubuntu on a HP Pavillion? TIA. Bill S. You must Sign in before you can post messages.
