Introduction
Hi. I'm a user of a laptop and Ubuntu for about 5 months now. Really liked Ubuntu and want to help to make it better. I'm not a developer, at least not professionally, i write some code when i need it, I'm a mechanical engineer (student, but a year from graduation) so i'm used to technology and programming some stuff. I bought this laptop (Vostro 3500) in the hope it will be fully Ubuntu compatible (it says so on the official Ubuntu website). Unfortunately it wasn't for all the hardware, Hybrid graphics is not supported for this laptop, but I hope this issue will be fixed soon. I'm a member of the Ubuntu nVidia proprietary drivers test team to help in a way or another to get support on my hardware. So I'm trying to help for some people who made the same "mistake" I've done. I had to clarify I'm not blaming anyone for this issue, at least not directly (I blame MS for it's monopoly and everybody's assumption you will use Win7), i want the issue fixed and I'm trying my best in my capabilities to improve this system. For now it's all. I'm at your service for any questions, suggestions and of course I'm here to learn (as always). Thanks for making computing a lot better everyday. -- Joaquín Ignacio Aramendía -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa
