hi.
i recently bought a new compaq cq60-209tu laptop which is presently running windows vista (32 bit). i wanted to install ubuntu and remove vista completely. i downloaded the karmic koala beta version and booted from the cd. everything seems to be working fine. the webcam, the internet and the wifi (i read that people had trouble with this), even the bluetooth. the touchpad seems to be working as well. everything except the function key.
is there any chance that once i install ubuntu completely, all the above mentioned stuff will stop working? is this working only because i have these drivers installed in vista. i've heard that people have trouble getting ubuntu to work on the compaq cq60. this includes wifi and touchpad problems.
thanks,
mk
