    [other] Re: Average battery life?

    One of the System 76 reps can correct me if I am wrong, but the Gazelle running 12.04 should get about 2 hours of run time. The Pangolin between 3 and 4 hors.

    Not having wlan0 listed on ifconfig suggests that it may be a hardware problem. Has your PanP7 been dropped or in any way jarred recently? I'm thinking may be the wireless card got unseated. Was...
