Looks like I might have to bite the bullet and just run WMWare Workstation 7. This just seems like a completely unnecessary workaround. If only Evolution could...

Hi,

I am increasingly using my Serval Karmic laptop for both development and business purposes.

We are using Exchange 5.5 for our email server, and we have no resources to modify the native...

Thanks Tom,

I know awhile back there was a Full HD Bonobo version when I purchased the Serval.

I definitely need the realestate for the type of work I do.

Thanks for looking into it. I just...

Anyone know if the Bonobo will have the Full HD version (1920x1200) resolution?

I'm in the market to upgrade from my Serval, but I need to maintain the same resolution.

Thanks Thomas. I'll try it out the next time this happens!

Hi,

I upgraded to Karmic a while back with no problems. Everything works accept for the typical disabling the modem software to enable audio.

However, I noticed that this problem was even...

System76 provides the best out-of-the-box hardware for Ubuntu distros. It just works. I've had only good experiences with my S76 laptop. The support is pretty good as you can tell from the quick...

I have the SERP5 Quadcore. Is there significant jump in performance to the new Serval?

Does System76 have any kind of trade-in program?

The SERP5 was already dimensionally thick, but the new...

UPDATE:

I ordered these from Newegg for around $400, and so far they are working fine with the SERP5. Now I can really stretch.

No worries. I thought you guys maintained a compatibility list somewhere. I'll do the trial and error method. Thanks for the quick and honest response.

The SERP5. I'm thinking this might be a nice Christmas gift for me if the price is right.

Is this 8GB memory module compatible with the Serval?

G.SKILL 8GB (2 x 4GB) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Laptop Memory Model F3-8500CL7D-8GBSQ

It's listed at $400 on Newegg. I'm...

Does anyone have any insight as to when 8GB DDR3 SoDimm laptop memory module kit pricing will decrease?

I need to upgrade from 4GB, but the price/GB sky-rockets after the 4GB barrier.

Thanks Aaron. I guess I'll have to disable the modem software.

I'm curious about one other thing then. I noticed that System76 is selling systems with Karmic installed, how are you guys handling...

Aaron,

Is there a permanent solution for this? Is there a way to get the sound to work without having to disable the modem?

I have the same problem. No sound after the Karmic upgrade. No hardware was detected.

My rig: Serval, 4GB, Quadecore Q9000, 1920x1200

Tried forcing the reload on the drivers like so as...

Got the serval 1920x1200 / Quad / 4GB config. Love the laptop, love the service, loved the order process:

Here's my review:

Got HDMI audio out working!... er. on Vista. I just needed to switch the default audio device to Realtec Digital Out.

I've set to try it on Ubuntu.

So I'm trying the HDMI out, but I'm not getting any sound output via HDMI to my HDTV. Is this the expected behavior? I was under the assumption that the sound signals would be fed through the HDMI...

I have some figures on a fresh fully-charged, fairly new battery.

Assumptions:
When I test a battery's consumption, I test it while I'm using the laptop to perform my daily tasks. I don't just...

Not at all, I believe you are correct. My Swaps were active, and everything was locked down. Thanks for replying, now someone knows exactly what to do.

All remarks and comments are high level with links to low level details. After Googling and Binging, I couldn't find one comprehensive place that explained the steps needed to setup my...

Fabulous!

dpkg -L nameofpackage

was exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks again.

I'd like to know the location of each installed packaged file after installing the package via apt-get.

And, I would like to do all of this from the command line only.

For example, if I run...
