Hello!
Well I have a problem with a laptop I had gotten from my friend. And from the title above it's what it is. I have a Dell XPS M1730 and I would like it running a variant of buntu but don't know what would work the best for performance.
I've mostly used Ubuntu 12.04LTS for my Acer Chromebook C720. And have used Ubuntu 14.04TLS on my Desktop with almost no issues.
The only problem is when I try to install Windows 7 ultimate 64bit, I get graphical issues. I wasn't really planing on using it for gaming but for more for video editing and developing.
I would like help on choosing a variant of buntu and would like help with getting the right graphical drivers or kernel for it to work. The graphics are the Dual 8700M GT 256mb. So, I could have 512mb of g-ram. It has 6gb of DDR2-SD ram. Intel Core 2 Duo 2.50 GHz CPU. If there is anything else you need to know about it just let me know.
Thank you!
