Ubuntu 10.04 on dell precision M6500

[CedricFR]

Hi Jisaac

Thanks for links, I try to use 10.04 in all my company computer, it's more easy to my team.

I'll look for a canonical image, but now I had give the M6500 to the user which need it.

If we bought another one I'll try to build an iso with ATI drivers.

Thanks for your help

Has any one tried using Virtual Box on these? I've been struggling off and on trying to get it to work for a few months. I've tinkered with the settings a million times and toyed with the BIOS too.

I started a thread on the virtual box forums (not much help):

And I opened a ticket with virtual box (also not much help):

(on a side note, when I disabled hyper threading in the bios, ubuntu's system monitor only displayed 2 CPUs, but virtualbox saw 4)
