Operational System – Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) 32-bit
Laptop model - Acer Aspire 5253-BZ602

Comments: I tried to do everything on 32-bit first because 64-bit technology isn't very stable yet. I wanted to ensure everything worked fine.


Graphics – ATI Radeon HD 6310
Status after Ubuntu installation: Driver was not installed, resolution messed up.
[FONT=Ubuntu]Current status: [B]Working, with a few minor issues.

Also 2xBZ602 here with 11.04 64-bit works out of the box perfectly. Wireless, (both open and prop driver) GPU has no issues open or prop drivers. Both were upgraded to 4GB RAM successfully. See notes for Memtest support below.


I haven't done anything 3d intensive yet, I'll edit results in later. I bought two. I also put an Intel 320 40Gb SSD (Benchmark post) into one of them with dm-crypt and LVM & basic SSD tweaks (noatime, discard/TRIM, disable journaling, ramfs /tmp, FF cache->/tmp, ). hdparm returns 175mb/s. Also the one with the original HDD is dual booted with windows 7 which booted fine through grub after being repartitioned by gparted with nothing more than a chkdisk. Battery life for HDD setup is ~4.5hrs active & SSD is ~7hrs active.

/var has it's own partition but this is bad looking for an alternative.


----Important----
Update memtest86+ to 4.20 by downloading the binary and moving it to your /boot to get support for the AMD fusion processor.
----/Important----

Bios has very few option but memtest86+ 4.20 successfully detected the performance Gskill memory I bought rated 1600mhz 9-9-9-28 as 6-6-6-19 versus the original 7-7-7-20 ram installed which I moved to my other laptop.

Distro: 10.04 Lucid
Maker: HP
Model: dv6000

Works just fine. My only qualm is that, despite the "Power Management" settings under "System > Preferences", there is not a laptop battery setting. Example being in Windows, where the is a Power Saver, Balanced, and High Performance mode.

I have noticed that if you have Windows and Ubuntu dual-booted, whatever power setting you last applied in Windows seems to be the power scheme that Ubuntu will stick with (until you change it again in Windows)
