I didn't get the Oryx Pro from System 76 but I did get the same exact computer (sager np-8657-S) from XoticPc.
Here are my thoughts:
If you close the lid, does your laptop suspend? Do the panel brightness keys work? I just got the 8657-S and have issues with those two things.
Thank you so much for this post! You're right about it being a beautiful machine. If I can live with the battery life, I'm 100% sold.
Thank you again.
It looks like the NP8657 to me and there aren't any reviews of that machine anywhere. The NP8651 has a Haswell (4th gen Intel core cpu), doesn't have an optical drive, and doesn't appear to be...
Thanks for the feedback.
Do you know what packages are in the System76 PPA? Can you provide some pics of the body of the machine? I'd like to know how much of it is aluminum.
Thanks
Thank you!!
That really sounds like a terrible time. However, I know some people that have gotten them and really like them. The Oryx Pro's battery life seems to be its biggest drawback. The XPS15 seems to be...
Same here. I'm trying to decide between the XPS15 and the Oryx Pro.
To OP or anyone else that has the machine:
How much of the body aluminum? I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that really...
What did you decide? I'm also looking at replacign my three year old Acer TimelineX with a Zareason Verix 530.
Usually, when people learn to program, they learn to make console programs. Every "Hello World" program I've seen has been the most basic console prgram that is launched via command line.

Honestly, I have no idea why you are having issues. I've installed flash on many, many linux computers and most of the methods outlined in this thread work without fail.
That being said, if you...
I think that depends on what version of flash you're using. If you're on 64-bit Ubuntu and running the stuff that comes in the software center, I bet thats your issue. Flash in the softeare center...
I'm not at all sure about 12.04 but if history is any indicator, I'd bet that switching doesn't work since the walkaround didn't work for 11.10. Hopefully, we are all pleasantly surprised since this...
I think you'd be better off with 11.04 and waiting for 12.04. 11.10 is what made me switch from Ubuntu altogether. One of the things that really turned me off about 11.10 was the lack of...
I recommend a clean install.
Did you upgrade from a previous version or clean install? Honestly, after BIOS 1.25, I've never had any trouble whatsoever. When I used to run Ubuntu (last version was 11.10 for a month), I clean...
1.25 is the best version yet. I've been using it since April 2011. It fixed a lot of small, nagging things for a lot of people.
Do you have the latest BIOS version?
The function key to change brightness or volue do not work?
While in command mode, you can press 'a' to get into append mode so that you can insert characters after the last.
If you don't have the latest version of VIM, I suggest a quick update:

*bump for similar issue*
I'm having this same issue as well. I made a java applet but it would not display.
I was just going to suggest that. Try running it from a folder in your home directory.
edit: I just downloaded Firefox 9 beta and it launched but could not load plugins.
I got this error...
Excellent! This means you have the most current version installed. Unfortunately, it doesn't like the way you are running Firefox 8...
Honestly, I have no idea why you aren't getting 8...
Ok, I just got home to my Ubuntu system and ran " cd / && sudo find -name libflashplayer.so" and have it only in one location (.usr/lib/mozilla/plugins). I'm guessing that all of the automated...
I just thought of another thing you can try. To make sure you know where all instances of libflashplayer.so are located, try this:
cd / && sudo find -name libflashplayer.so
It will...
