I have previously asked a question asking if ubuntu works on the device ( Ubuntu on Advent Torino X700 (http://askubuntu.com/questions/403520/ubuntu-on-advent-torino-x700) ), but no one seems to have tried it, ADVENT will not try it for me, and I have no local shop where I can try it, I have no choice but to ask 'should it work'.
I said previously: I am intested in buying the Advent Torino X700. I do not like windows 8 and I already use Ubuntu so I would want to install Ubuntu desktop onto it.
As no one as tried ubuntu on it, advent won't tell me and I cannot test it myself, is there anything about its hardware that will prevent ubuntu from working on it? Here is hardware info: http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/computing/laptops/laptops/advent-torino-x700-15-6-laptop-21646965-pdt.html#longDesc
Does all the mention hardware work with Ubuntu? Will I need any drivers for things like integrated speakers or wifi? Is there anything that jumps out that won't work with ubuntu?
I guess if you think it'll work with Ubuntu, I'll get it, and if it doesn't work, I'll have to return it.
