Acer Aspire S7-391-6810 works under Linux (Ubuntu, say)?
Also, if I install Linux instead of Win8, my warranty will be void?
Thank you!
Nice day
Linux (Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.) will run on S7-391-6810, HOWEVER, the only problem you will encounter is the drivers and applications on your computer that drivers are only available for the Windows platform.
Regarding the warranty, Acer does not care what you load on the machine, as they cover the software warranty. They cover only the pure component on hardware failure... which means that only produce material defect is covered.

Hello
Does anyone know wehther T400 integrated webcam working under linux or not?
Thank you
I use a Y410 with OpenSUSE11.0, it supports my webcam, very good and better than Windows...

The webcam software used in open SUSE11.0,'s 'CHEESE', it should be available for other distributions as well...

So, I bought my QVC S7 - 391from Acer Aspire. They have a good flexpay option which I can afford and a great return policy. Won't in 30 days - just go back. Sweet! He received last week. I returned it the following week.
Ugh... I really want to love this device. Its simplicity is beautiful. The power is fantastic. The resolution, I have even to wear glasses. The construction is solid. The unit is nicely stands out of the Orchard 'Apple' of users in Starbucks or any other place. Finally, a unit that is not in brushed silver, black Matt or slate ish in colour.
Yes, before my purchase - I did my research. I read all news, reviews, opinion, articles, post etc... and anyway, I've always done the purchase. But as soon as I started to feel the "quirks" who all expressed in the comments I had read. I thought, ' hurry up, time to go! "
My experience has been the double tapping keys (I'm not the best typer but I'm a bad typer - I type like a chicken 'to hunt and choose'.)
Another reason for my return, it was losing the cursor. When I placed the cursor where I wanted to, he would move or does not react.
However, I have not met the decline of the wifi service. But very afraid I would. All the post about falling wifi, makes me scared just return it.
Anyway... After all that... and without the unit for the last 4 days only, Miss me it already. Starting to think, I reacted to quickly turning.
Are there any consumer out there with an Acer Aspire S7-391, which has not experienced a technical difficulty at all? One who has had a positive experience of the buyer? Who does not have any quirks with their unit they have bought?
I think again, I reacted to quickly to return my S7-391. Honestly, I think to give him a second chance and get another.
Evaluate the issue from a different angle. Take a look at the forums of other manufacturers.
I suspect you will find similar horror stories. Without doubt some unfounded but is not much.
I do not have a S7, but I agree, there seems to be problems with the wifi in particular. What is unknown, however, is the number of S7 users who have experienced no problem WiFi. If there is a fundamental flaw, each user S7 won't be affected?
There will surely be many Acer users who have not experienced any problems and is more satisfied with their purchase. I'm very happy with mine!
I think it is unlikely that any given machine will require not some "refractory" at one time or another. It is the nature of the beast. However, I expect a new machine to be no problem with regards to the "back of the box" material other that perhaps tweaking the strange to meet personal preferences setting etc.

Original title: some keys not working not
I have an acer aspire laptop all at once a number of keys have stopped working the x c. f n? stopped working. any ideas?
Hi Laura,
1. have you made a recent software or hardware changes to the system?
2. what Windows operating system do you use?
Method 1:
You can try to install the latest version of the drivers from the Acer site and check.
Method 2:
You can also check if the FN key is enabled. If so, then try to switch it off.
Method 3:
If you still experience the problem, try to activate the on screen keyboard and check if the problem persists.

Tecra 8200: TV output refuses to work under Linux
Hi guys!
My tv-out will not work on linux with X. Anyone have a bit of luck and get this to work? The problem is with refresh rate I think the screen right color but is very deformated :( It works well with Windows XP and the console but I can't understand it in X. Please help :(
Thanks in advance.
Is that Toshiba does not support Linux and so there is no information on the problems of Linux.
However, I put t think that the refresh rate has something to do with this problem.
I will recommend you to check the following websites and maybe you will get some details and help:http://newsletter.toshiba-tro.de/main/

Satellite M70-164: heating under Linux Ubuntu problem
Hello
I use Linux Ubuntu Edgy under my laptop and when I play UT2004 I got a rate of about 90fps, but after 10 minutes of play fps drastically drop to 15/20 fps!
I noticed that the pleasure never operate at full speed on linux! and to check I suspended my laptop and ubuntu has a bug that when you turn on your computer again, the fan will always run at full speed, so I went with the fan at full speed play UT again for about 1 h 30 and the FPS does not let it go this time, so I concluded that it is a heating problem.
I installed omnibook but my phoenix bios do not support the fans... under windows, I have no problem.
What should I do? Thanks :)
I have no problem with Edgy on U200, with games such as Sauerbraten.
Fan is really speed up when necessary.Hope you will solve your problem.
